Beskrivelse
This second book continues with the armadillo siblings' adventures and introduces a new protagonist-Fledermaus Horse. Fledermaus Horse is highly skilled in freestyle musical dressage--a sport in which horses learn to dance to music. This second book retains most of the characters introduced in the first book: Armadillo Baby, Annabelli (his sister), Raina Sparkle (the bat-dinosaur-dragon chimera), Seflagori (the Bactrian camel), Captain Shutemup & his assistant Sparky Blaberon (from the evil 'catch your own semi-extinct animal' cruise ship), and Elvis and Montmorency (the Syrian crocodiles). To summarize the story: A horse turns up at the armadillos' home. He has a unique gift of being able to do freestyle musical dressage without a rider. He is encouraged to teach these unique skills to a Bactrian camel. The camel eventually enters a freestyle musical dressage competition--and wins first prize! The horse and the camel then go on a pre-publication book tour to America. The narrative in this book is intended to challenge 8-12-year-old readers and increase their vocabulary and writing skills, while at the same time keeping them engaged with humor and detailed descriptions of delicious middle-eastern foods!!
