Book synopsis

When a big betail (big animal) intrudes into the swampland on a gloomy day, the bayou critters are fearful. The big betail is Andrew Armadillo from Texas. A huge creature with a hard shell, cowboy boots, and thick-lensed spectacles, Andrew at first frightens our bayou friends with his strange accent and booming voice. Unknowingly, this stranger destroys Clovis Crawfish's mudhouse. Clovis tries to defend his territory by confronting this immense animal. Rene Rainfrog, Denis Dirt Dauber, and the others scamper out of sight when the big betail begins to speak. As Bertile Butterfly flies away, she is trapped in a thornbush. Andrew, protected by his hard shell and propped up on his long tail, rescues Bertile. Illustrated in a lively and playful style, this book is for ages 5 to 8.
