Dee Phillips Armadillo's Burrow

Annotation

A very odd-looking creature is furiously digging a hole with its long claws. The creature is a nine-banded armadillo, and while it already has ten other burrows in its territory, the busy homemaker has just discovered a great place to build yet another underground home! In Armadillo's Burrow, kids will explore the underground world of these little animals through clear text and large, full-color photos. Age-appropriate activities, such as describing the animal to a friend, and critical-thinking questions give readers a chance to gain insights beyond the facts and figures. Fun information, such as how an armadillo digs for insects using its snout and then slurps up the bugs with its sticky tongue, is sure to delight young readers.
