Especially if the tattler happens to be an armadillo with ears as tall a jack rabbit's and as wide as a steer's horns -- an armadillo who can hear anything and everything with his humongous ears.

Armadillo Tattletale loves nothing better than eavesdropping on other animals and telling tales about what he hears. That is, until ... Armadillo's friends give him the how-come and the why-not of tattle-telling that leaves Armadillo promising never to cause such a ruckus again.

Tattlers and those they tell on will delight in Helen Ketteman and Keith Graves' hilarious spin on the story of how Armadillo's ears came to be so small.
