Arlo Makes a Friend — Wendy Wax

Arlo, the adorable armadillo star of Just Like Me, returns. And once again, kids will relate to the popular character as he faces some common childhood situations: moving to a new home, trying to make friends, and dealing with bullies.
Even though the burrow where Arlo's family now lives is cozy and comfy, he's lonely without anyone to play with. Even worse, his first journey into the neighborhood forest doesn't go too well. First, a mean snake keeps pelting him with mangoes. Then, as Arlo's digging an underground hide-out to avoid getting hit, he has a run-in with a very bossy rabbit named Jack. But when the snake threatens them both, Arlo and Jack realize that maybe two are better than oneÂ...and a brand-new friendship is born.
