ABOUT THE BOOK

This "Turtles of Malaysia" colouring book retails at RM20/copy but for this fundraiser, the books are going at RM10/copy. It consists of 18 colouring pages, one for each of Malaysia's native freshwater turtle and tortoise. The description for each turtle is written on the opposite page in two languages, i.e. Bahasa Melayu and English. A glossary page is also provided at the back of the book for children to learn new, unfamiliar words. 

To date, 1,700 copies of the colouring book have been distributed to local, rural students for free since it was published in July 2022.
