The Song of the Armadillo: Storybook
In Bolivia, there once lived a little armadillo who loved music more than anything else in the world. He played the horn, the harmonica, the piano and every other possible thing. However, the sounds he made were not quite right and so the frogs, crickets and canaries made fun of him saying " don't be ridiculous, armadillos can't sing!" He doesn't let them discourage him and continues to work towards his dream of having a beautiful song!
