thinking differently. The jungle animals declare that Armadillo's
party is wrong because everything is a little unusual, but what the
animals learn is that being creative and inventive can lead to fun
and laughter! This bold, bright, hilarious picture book is brought
to life by talented illustrator Rob Starling. Oh, Armadillo! will
provide hours of laughs for little readers, whilst reminding us
that thinking differently is good and can lead to the most fun of
