The sixth installment in the internationally acclaimed The Lamb Who Came for Dinner series, penned by the unparalleled Steve Smallman (Poo in the Zoo, The Eyebrows of Doom, The Monkey with the Bright Blue Bottom), and brought to life with warmth by Joëlle Dreidemy.

One fateful day, Dizzy the armadillo makes a grand entrance at Hotpot's picnic with a resounding THUMP! "Do you need a hug?" ponders Hotpot, his curiosity piqued. However, Dizzy, known for his tough demeanor, vehemently denies the need for a comforting embrace. Yet, when disaster strikes at the Fun Fair, the solace of a friend becomes precisely what this resilient armadillo requires.

This heartwarming tale implores readers to confront stereotypes and peer beyond the surface. In The Armadillo Who Came for Dinner, we witness the revelation that someone who appears rugged on the exterior can harbor a gentle and vulnerable nature within. Fans of the beloved The Lamb Who Came for Dinner series, as well as readers of The Lion Inside by Rachel Bright and Jim Field, Weirdo by Zadie Smith, Nick Laird, and Magenta Fox, and The Duck Who Didn't Like Water by Steve Small, will warmly welcome the delightful addition of Dizzy into Hotpot's comforting woodland realm.
