From Hungry, Hungry Sharks to Platypus, Step into Reading has always offered newly independent readers fun, informatiive non-fiction about animals. This will be the only stepped reader about armadillos. It's ideal for children who watched Discovery Kids as toddlers and are ready to read about these quirky animals all on their own.

Armadillos may look funny, move oh-so-slowly, and smell a little stinky but readers can learn how extraordinary they are in this Step 3 book!

Did you know that armadillos can jump three feet in the air to scare away predators? They can hold their breath underwater for 10 minutes, and they’ve been known to eat 40,000 bugs in a single meal! Follows a female armadillo as she forages for food, builds a home, and prepares for the birth of her baby pups while learning quirky and cool facts about the amazing armadillo!

Step 3 Readers feature engaging characters in easy-to-follow plots about popular topics--for children who are ready to read on their own.
