Welcome to Armadillo
Armadillo Children's Book Review Magazine continues to expand, maintaining its popularity and reputation, thanks to the many book reviews written by our fantastic team of volunteers. We owe a huge thanks to our growing team of volunteers avidly reading and reviewing these many exciting and varied books.
In addition, there are regular feature articles showcasing innovation and exciting developments in the children's book world. Team Armadillo continues to be thankful to all the publishers who offer us exciting opportunities to read so many new books, meet their amazing creators and celebrate the vibrant world that is children's publishing.
Armadillo is published quarterly. Since we can't wait that long to keep you informed about new publications and forthcoming events we post regularly on social media: Instagram, Twitter and Facebook.
