Land of Hungry Armadillos — Lawrence David

Gus won't share crayons and paper with his little sister, Wendy. So, after being sent to his room, Gus angrily wishes upon a star for his very own drawing supplies. A creature named Zub appears, ready to grant Gus his wish for the right trade. Why not Wendy? Zub gladly hands Gus his own crayons and paper. In the morning Wendy is nowhere to be found. No longer angry, Gus remembers the deal he made and knows he must get his sister back. So begins Gus's journey to the land of hungry armadillos--where Zub rules, poor Wendy is most unhappy, and Gus realizes that selfish actions can have bad consequences. . . .
