Story follows an armadillo from birth to motherhood, sharing a great deal of information about the animal in the process. Large watercolor illustrations depict the various landscapes of the journey. Two page appendix provides additional information about armadillos.
The kids I read to at my weekly Storytime (3-5 year olds) really liked this one. They loved all the animals and one little guy in particular loved that there was a tractor in the book.
