Найти книгу: "Willow the Armadillo (Unabridged)"

Willow the Armadillo loves picture books. More than anything, she wants to be the hero in a picture book of her very own. She knows that achieving her dream will take a lot of work, so she studies hard at Picture Book Academy and signs up for many auditions. But she just can't seem to land a leading role! After one last heartbreaking rejection, she heads to the library for some peace and quiet, and instead finds…chaos! And that's when Willow discovers something even better than being a hero in a book.

A level 3 Oxford Bookworms Library graded reader. Retold for Learners of English by Jennifer Bassett. Down by the river bank, where the wind whispers through the willow trees, is a very pleasant place to have a lunch party with a few friends. But life is not always so peaceful for the Mole and the Water Rat. There is the time, for example, when Toad gets interested in motor-cars – goes mad about them in face… The story of the adventures of Mole, Rat, Badger, and Toad has been loved by young and old for over a hundred years.
