Children will love this delightful little armadillo who gets lost when searching for his kite. Will he get home again? Enchanting illustrations combine acrylic, watercolour and digital media. This title is aimed at children aged 3 to 5. Kids will joyfully welcome back Arlo, the delightful little armadillo from "Arlo Makes a Friend" (9781402747267). Windy days are kite days and Arlo and his friend Jack are having fun flying theirs all the way 'to Jupiter and Mars'. But when a gust of wind blows Arlo's kite into a tree, he wanders off by himself to find it. Suddenly thunder booms, the rains pour down and poor Arlo's all alone, lost in the woods. Will Arlo be able to use his wits and his special armadillo skills, to get back home again?
