The Beginning of the Armadilloes (Just So Stories) - Hardcover
Book 8 of 8: The Just So Stories - illustrated and retold by Shoo Rayner
Synopsis
The Beginning Of The illustrated by Lorinda Bryan Cauley. There are Hedgehogs and Tortoises in other places, of course; but the real old and clever kind, with their scales lying lippety-lappety one over the other, like pinecone scales, that lived on the banks of the turbid Amazon in the High and Far-Off Days, are always called Armadillos, because they were so clever.
