A girl succeeded in getting the job to walk the turtle Henry.She just was the lucky one from hundreds of competitors.The pay for it is just $10 an hour.
Henry's owner Amanda Green，who lives in Harlem，has had the 17－pound African turtle for six years.Amanda felt guilty that she was only able to take Henry for walks on the weekend.So she turned to the Internet for help.She placed an advertisement in March looking for someone to help her.The work is to take the heavy African turtle on weekday walks to Central Park in the summer.
Ms Green，who writes for a website，expected a few answers，but received hundreds.And it was the girl named Amalia McCallister who got the sweet summer job.Her job is to put Henry into his pet car，take him to travel three miles from Ms Green's home to Central Park，where Henry can move freely.She needs to clean up after him.
“If there are grasses or dandelions(蒲公英)，it will be all right for him to enjoy himself.There he can eat the grass safely and healthily，” Amalia McCallister said.“He really loves to eat dandelions most.It's like a field full of French fries for him，” she added.Henry attracts plenty of animal lovers in the park，including adults and children.
After a couple of hours in the park，it is time for Henry to go back into its small car and be pushed home.McCallister says that she loves her new job very much and the job gives her great pleasure.
