Tattlers and those they tell on will delight in Helen Ketteman and Keith Graves' hilarious spin on the story of how Armadillo's ears came to be so small.

When a creeping, peeping tattler gets caught, it's bittersweet sorrow.

Especially if the tattler happens to be an armadillo with ears as tall a jackrabbit's and as wide as a steer's horns--an armadillo who can hear anything and everything with his fabulously useful ears.

Armadillo Tattletale loves nothing better than eavesdropping on other animals and telling tales about what he hears. Then one fine day Armadillo's friends give him the how-come and why-not of tattle-telling that leaves Armadillo promising never to cause such a ruckus again.
