ABSTRACT The goal of the Texas Reading Club is to encourage the children of Texas to become library users and lifelong readers. This manual was created for the 2002 Texas Reading Club, a program of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. The theme, "Read Across Texas!" invites children to explore the history, geography, and culture of Texas through the portal of books and their local libraries. The purpose of this manual is to assist library staff who serve youth by suggesting ideas for programs that will attract children to the library. The programs in each chapter of this manual feature a combination of the following components: books to share, show, and booktalk; bulletin boards, displays, and decorations; fingerplays, rhymes, poems, and songs; riddles, and jokes; crafts, games, and activities; guest speakers; musical recordings, videos, Web sites, and CD-ROMs; and reader's theater scripts, puppet shows, stories, or citations to books in which they may be located. The manual begins with a "Texas Hoe Down" to kick- off the Texas Reading Club and a " Roundup" to celebrate its completion. The suggested bulletin boards in these programs are based on the clip art in the back of this manual. The Toddler and Preschool Program chapters have suggestions for programs specifically designed for youth in those age groups and include a wealth of original songs and fingerplays. The Elementary Programs chapter suggests many books, crafts, activities, and other programming ideas that will appeal to school age children. All of the chapters have similar formats, with the exception of the Young Adult Programs chapter, which uniquely addresses the interests of that age group. The Young Adult chapter outlines a separate reading club on the theme "Travel Quest!" as well as many programming ideas. Bibliographic information for titles in all chapters and in all formats is compiled at the end of the manual, divided into sections for books, videos, audio recordings, and CD-ROMs. Information on marketing, cooperation and public relations; cooperation with schools; and serving children with disabilities is also provided.(AEF)

CH:A Narrator Ginger Fella Sasparilla Armadilla

PIMPS "Glass" Boots Legs sewn on Ginger Fella puppet

Narrator: Once upon a time, there was a poor mistreated cowboy named Ginger Fella.

(Enter Ginger Fella)

Ginger Fella: It isn't fair! Every year when rodeo time comes around I never get to be in any of the events. Instead, I have to slop buckets, clean out the stalls, and clean up after the horses and the other animals, if you know what I mean. And it's all on account of my no good feet. (Sling feet to front of stage) My feet are SO ginger, even the thickest boots won't keep me from getting big ol' fat ugly blisters that stay sore for days. That's why they call me Ginger Fella.

(Enter Black Bart)

Black Bart: Yo, Ginger Fella, you got my horse saddled and ready to go? The buckin' bronco competition is about to begin.

(Pull Ginger Fella's feet back behind the stage)

Ginger Fella: Yeah, Black Bart. (Pause) Say, I have an eentsy weentsy favor to ask. You know that old horse of yours named Charlie? I was wondering if you would let me try to ride him in the bronco event.

Black Bart: You on my Charlie horse? Forget it, Ginger. He may be old, but he won't let a cream puff like you ride him! Anyway, you'd lose for sure! Why, you're just barkin' at a knot!

(Black Ban exits)

Ginger Fella (Looking at audience): See what I mean! It just isn't fair!

Sasparilla Armadilla: Ginger Fella, I hear you've been having troubles lately. Ginger Fella: You got that right! Say, I haven'tseen you around here before.

Sasparilla Armadilla: I'm Sasparilla Armadilla. I can grant wishes topoor downtrodden cow pokes. What's your wish, Ginger Fella?

Ginger Fella: Oh, I would LOVE to be in the bucking bronco contest. Butmy feet are SO ginger, even the thickest boots won't keep me from getting big ol' fat, ugly blisters...

Sasparilla Armadilla: That's o.k, you really don't need to describe it tome. I have just the thing. These glass boots should protect your tootsies. (Insertname of narrator), would you do the honors?

Narrator: Sure enough. (Narrator puts boots on Ginger)

Ginger Fella: These feel great! But I don't have a horse.

Sasparilla Armadilla: I already thought of that. I'm going to turn that stablemouse over there (gestures back stage) into the meanest bucking bronco you ever did see.

Ginger Fella: M-m-m-meanest???

Sasparilla Armadilla: Yep! He's a real snorter! But the spell will only last until High Noon. Then he turns back into a stable mouse.

Ginger Fella: Well I swan! I guess life is fair after all!

(Both exit)

Narrator: So, Ginger Fella got to be in the bucking bronco competition. And you should haveseen that mean bronco buck. And you should have seen Ginga Fella hold on for dear life! (Throw Ginger above the stage a few times and yell: Yee Ha!! Yippee!! Whoa Doggie! ! !,etc.) Why, it was one long stretch of time before he kissed the ground! And when the competition was over, Ginger Fella won! But before the rodeo winners were announced, it struck High Noon.

(Enter Ginger Fella, running across stage)

Ginger Fella: Oh, my goodness! I've got to get back to the stables or I'll be in big trouble with Black Bart! (Ginger Fella runs across stage and trips. One boot is thrown to the front of the stage)

Ginger Fella: Oops! Oh, no, my boot...no time to waste! (Ginger exits)

Narrator: (Holding the glass boot) And so the glass boot was the only way the awards committee had to find the winner of the rodeo's grand prize. And wouldn't you know it, Black Bart tried to pretend it was his.

(Enter Black Bart)

Black Bart: I do believe that boot is mine, and you can just giveme my rodeo buckle now.

4. 235 Narrator: You have to try the boot on to prove it's yours, Black Bart.

Black Bart: Give that to me!

(Narrator hands boot to Bart. Bart bends over trying to put it on behind the stage)

Black Ban: OWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW! It's almost on...it's al-most on...I've got it...I've got it!! (Boing! )

(Boot comes flying over the stage, narrator catches it)

Narrator: Sony, Black Bart, I'm afraid we all know its not yours.

Black Bart (From behind the stage): Why, I'm mad as a rattler! I wanted that rodeo buckle!

Narrator: When it came time for Ginger Fella to try on the book, Black Bart was still mad as rattler.

(Enter Ginger and Bart)

Black Bart: You don't really intend to try that boot on this creampuff, do you? Why, he's just a bucket slopper!

Narrator: Yes, Black Bart, we really do intend to try this boot on Ginger Fella.

(Sling Ginger's feet to the front of stage. Narrator puts on the boot) 110 Ginger Fella: It fits! I was afraid my feet would be all swolled up from the excitement! Well, Black Bart, you can slop your own buckets from now on!

(Exit Black Bart)

Narrator: Ginger Fella was crowned champion of the rodeo and got a great big buckle!

(Backstage throw Ginger up a few times and yell, YIPPEE! WHOA DOGGIE! YEE HAA! ! !, etc.)

Narrator: And so, Sasparilla Armadilla rode off into the sunset singing "Happy Trails to You." And Ginger Fella lived happily every after.

Narrator leads the audience in singing, "Happy Trails"

CHAIRACTIORs Cowboy Coyote Sherrill Cow

AcKover Paint a herd of cattle on the background of the prairie.

(Enter Cowboy and Cow. Cowboy is pacing back and forth.)

Cowboy: (To the audience) Howdy folks. My job is to watch over these cattle from morning till night. It sure is a boring job. I try to kill time by singing and writing . Try this on for size There once was a cowboy tall Who hardly thought of his cattle at all. They spent all their time grazing Which made the tall cowboy feel lazy And dream about horses and songs.

Cow: M000.

Cowboy: I wish something exciting would happen, like a coyote would come along and try to get at my herd.

Cow: M000.

Cowboy: In fact I wonder what would happen if I yelled, "coyote!" really loud. I will pretend there is a coyote! That will stir things up a bit!

Cow: M000.

Cowboy: Help, help! It's a coyote! There is a coyote after the cattle. Help!

Sheriff: (Runs on stage, very excited) What's the matter? Are you hurt? Where is the coyote?

Cowboy: Hot diggity dog! Ya'll sure came fast! (Innocently) I guess all my yelling scared the coyote away.

Sheriff: Well the main thing is that you are safe and the coyote didn't get the cattle. (Exits stage)

4 Cowboy: That sure was fun! What should I do now. It is so boring out here. I know, what about a song? Sing along with me: Home, home on the range, Where the deer and the antelope play, Where seldom is heard, A discouraging word, And the skies are not cloudy all day. (Repeatsinging off key)

Cow: M000.

Cowboy: Well that sure was nice but I am still bored. Why don't we have some more fun. I am going to yell and see if that fella comes running back to help.

Cow: M000.

Cowboy: Help, help! It's a coyote! There is a coyote after the cattle. Help!

Sheriff: (Runs on stage again, this time out of breath) What's the matter? (Looks around the stage) I don't see any coyote here. Are you sure there was a coyote after the cattle?

Cowboy: Well, I swan. That coyote was right here a minute ago. I reckon my yelling scared him away.

Sheriff: (Still suspicious) Well...if that coyote comes again, you yell and I will come running to the rescue. (Exits stage)

Cowboy: (To audience) Boy we sure do have him fooled, don't we? Let's sing another song to liven things up a bit. Do you know "Get Along Little Dogies?" All together now. As I walked out one morning for pleasure, I met a cowpuncher a jogging along; His hat was throwed back and his spurs was a jingling And as he advanced he was singing this song: Yippee ti yo, get along little dogies It's your misfortune and none of my own Yippe ti yo, get along little dogies. You know that Wyoming will be your new home. That sure was fun. I bet that fella will still come running if I call again.

Cow: M000.

Cowboy: Help, help! It's a coyote! There is a coyote after the cattle again. Help!

Sheriff: (Runs on stage) Okay, where is that coyote? I don't see a coyote here! I think you are making this all up. Don't bother to call again because I am not just going to keep running up here for no reason. (Exits stage)

(Cow exits stage)

Cowboy: Gosh darn, he sure is mad. Some people just can't take a joke. Where did that cow go? I had better round him up or I will be in big tr9te!

I suppose almost everybody knows about the Battle of the Alamo. And what most people know for sure is that there were no survivors among the defenders of the Alamo. None of the Texas soldiers who fought there lived to tell the tale. But there were survivors among the Texans at the Alamo, and one of them was a little girlI mean a really little girl named Angelina Elizabeth Dickinson. Back in March of 1836 she wasn't quite a year and a half old. And she didn't know anything about war or the reasons for war. She just knew how to be a baby and do what babies do. And that made her adorable to the men on both, sides. Well, to her daddy, of course. He was a young officer in the Texas army, Almeron Dickinson, and he'd brought his wife, Susanna, and his daughter with him to the Alamo. And he carried Angelina with him everywhere he wenteven when he went to a meeting with Col. William Barret Travis. So there she was crawling around, playing on the floor, doing what babies do, and Col. Travis himself could not resist her baby charms. In the midst of all his concerns about being way outmanned by the Mexican army and about having none of the reinforcements he had asked for and hoped for, he picked Angelina up and lifted her onto his lap. Then he took a hammered gold ring with a black cat's eye stone off his finger, tied it through with a string he found in his , andslipped it over Angelina's head like a necklace. "If my boy was here," he said, "I'd give this to him. But I won't be needing it anymore, so you keep it for me." She already had a wooden doll whittled for her by , that funny man from Tennessee who made her laugh when he'd tickle her with the tail hanging from his fur skin cap sometimes coon skin, sometimes fox skinand he made her bounce on her little fat legs when he played his hoe down fiddle. Oh, she got attention from everyone. That's what babies do. If she remembered anything about the battle going on around her on March 6,1836, it was probably the noise: the sounds of gunfire and cannon fire and men shouting ordersand men crying out in pain. She might remember being held close by her mother, Susanna, as they huddled in a small room where gunpowder had been stored. She might even remember the left-over smell of that gunpowder. And then there was the silence, when the noise was all over and everything was quiet again after the Mexicans had overrun the old mission. She might remember being carried by her mother from that small room into a larger one where a man wearing a fancy military uniform and white gloves reached out for her. Andshe did what babies do: she went to him and sat on his lap and played with all the medals hanging off his jacket. When he spoke to her, the words were soft and musical. "Hermosa," he said, "muy hermosa." Later her mother would tell her that he was calling her beautiful, very beautiful. And later her mother would tell her that this man wanted to take Angelinaonly he called her Angelinaback to Mexico with him. "I want this child," he said. "I will give her the best Mexico has to offer: clothes and jewels and education." But her mother said, "No, never!" For this man, of course, was General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, the man who had ordered "no quarter," who had said there would be no survivors among those who fought against him, including Susanna's husband and Angelina's father, Almeron. So Santa Anna gave them safe passage away from the Alamo and made Susanna his messenger. "Go," he said, "and tell all the Texans that the Alamo has fallen, and tell that any further resistance will be useless." As they rode from the Alamo to Sam Houston's camp, Susanna and Angelina encountered other Texans, one of whom was Erastus "Dea' Smith, and itwas Smith who reached out for Angelina this time. And she did what babies do: she went to him and cuddled down against the soft deerskin of his jacket and went back to sleep. Once they reached Sam Houston'scamp, Smith continued to hold Angelina and rock her as she slept and as Susanna poured out her story of those thirteen daysat the Alamo and of the brave defenders who died there. And from that story came the rallying cry, "Remember the Alamo!" that took the Texans into battle at San Jacinto: the battle they won, the battle in which they captured Santa Anna, the battle that assured Texas its independence from Mexico and its beginningsas a new republic. And Angelina? Oh, she would remember the Alamo too,no doubtor at least some of the men there whose lives she touched with her innocenceevery time she looked at that hammered gold ring with the black cat's eye stone or that crudely-carved wooden doll,or anytime she saw brightly- ribboned medals hanging on a military uniform. And we remember her as the Babe of the Alamo.

One afternoon, Coyote was walking next to the horse pasture of the Flying Mustang . Suddenly, several horseflies began flying around his head. Coyote reached up, caught one of those horseflies, and quickly put it in the burlap sack he was carrying. He tied up that burlap sack, threw it over his shoulder, and started traveling down the road. He traveled until he came to the Running W Ranch where he met Garwood, the ranch house cook. Garwood was cooking up a mess of delicious smelling chili. Now when Coyote smelled it, he was hungry! So, coyote hatched a plan to rustle up something to eat. "Could I leave my burlap sack here while I go to Round Rock?" asked Coyote. Garwood said, "Sure, you can leave it here. I don't mind at all." "That's very neighborly and kind of you," said Coyote. "But while I'm gone, be sure not to open my burlap sack." Coyote sauntered off down the road grinnin' from ear to ear. He was barely out of sight before Garwood looked at that tightly tied burlap sack. Usually, he was not very curious, but for some reason, his curiosity got the better of him. "Why shouldn't I take just one little bitty peek inside that sack?" he thought. And he did. Of course, when he did that horsefly came flying out. A gecko living under the nearby porch quickly caught that horsefly with a flip of its long tongue and swallowed him in one gulp. Now Coyote, he turned right back around, came back to the Running W. Ranch, and picked up his sack. It felt lighter than it had before, so he looked inside. Seeing that his horsefly was gone, he said, "My horsefly is gone. You opened my burlap sack, didn't you?" "I did open your burlap sack," Garwood said. "I was taking just one little peek when that horsefly flew out and it was eaten by the gecko that lives under the porch." "Well, it's too bad that happened," said Coyote. "But now I must take the gecko." Coyote scooped up that gecko, put him in his burlap sack, and continued walking down the road. He traveled until he came to the Yellow Rose of Texas Ranch. There he met Miss Ruby Lee Gerdes who was one of the prettiest cowgirls around those parts. "Could I leave my burlap sack here while I go to Round Rock?" asked Coyote. Miss Ruby Lee said, "Sure, you can leave it here. I don't mind at all." "That's very neighborly and kind of you," said Coyote. "But while I'm gone, be sure not to open my burlap sack." Coyote sauntered off down the road grinnin' from ear to ear again. He was barely out of sight before Miss Ruby Lee looked at that tightly tied burlap sack. Usually, she was not very curious, but today her curiosity got the better of her. "Why shouldn't I take just one little bitty peek inside that sack?" she thought. And she did. Of course, when she did that gecko came scurrying out. Miss Ruby Lee's pet roadrunner was nearby and quickly gobbled up that gecko in the wink of an eye. Now Coyote, he turned right back around, came back to the Yellow Rose of Texas Ranch, and picked up his sack. It felt lighter than it had before, so he looked inside. Seeing that his gecko was gone, he said, "My gecko is gone. You opened my burlap sack, didn't you?" "I did open your burlap sack," said Miss Ruby Lee. "I was taking just one little peek when that gecko scurried out and was quickly eaten by my pet roadrunner." "Well, it's too bad that happened," said Coyote. "But now I must take the roadrunner."

42 4 9 Coyote grabbed that roadrunner, put it in his burlap sack, and continued walking down the road. He traveled until he came to the Rocking R Ranch, which had the finest herd of longhorn cattle in the State of Texas. There he met the ranch foreman, Collie Loflin. "Could I leave my burlap sack here while Igo to Round Rock?" asked Coyote. Collie Loflin said, "Sure, you can leave it here. I don't mind at all." "That's very neighborly and kind of you," said Coyote. "But while I'mgone, be sure not to open my burlap sack." Coyote sauntered off down the road grinnin' from ear to ear. Hewas barely out of sight before Collie looked at that tightly tied burlap sack. Usually hewas not very curious, but today his curiosity got the better of him. "Why shouldn't I take just one little bitty peek inside that sack?" he thought. And he did. Of course, when he did that roadrunner came running out. One of Collie's longhornswas grazing nearby. It began chasing that roadrunner. The longhorn, however,was no match for the roadrunner; and the roadrunner was out of sight in a flash. Now Coyote, he turned right back around, came back to the Rocking R Ranch, and pickedup his sack. It felt lighter than it had before, so he looked inside. Seeing that his roadrunnerwas gone, he said, "Where is my roadrunner? You opened my burlap sack, didn't you?" "I did open your burlap sack," said Collie. "I was taking just one little peek when that roadrun- ner ran out and one of my longhorns chased it away." "Well, it's too bad that happened," said Coyote. "But now I must take the longhorn." Coyote roped that longhorn, put it in his burlap sack, and continued walking down the road. He traveled until he came to the Bluebonnet Ranch. There he met theowner Miss Ida Mae Dosset and her niece, Ivy Dean, who was visiting her from up North. "Could I leave my burlap sack here while I go to Round Rock?" asked Coyote. Miss Ida Mae said, "Sure, you can leave it here. I don't mind at all." "That's very neighborly and kind of you," said Coyote. "But while I'm gone, besure not to open my burlap sack." Coyote sauntered off down the road grinnin' from ear to ear again. He was barely out of sight before Miss Ida Mae looked at that tightly tied burlap sack. Usually, shewas not very curious, but today her curiosity got the better of her. "Why shouldn't I take justone little bitty peek inside that sack," she thought. And she did. Of course, when she did that longhorn came bolting out. Ivy Dean had never seena longhorn before and she screamed. That longhorn was so startled by her scream, he broke through the corral fence and didn't stop running until it got to the next county. Now Coyote, he turned right back around, came back to the Bluebonnet Ranch, and pickedup his sack. It felt lighter than before, so he looked inside. Seeing that his longhornwas gone, he said, "Where is my longhorn? You opened my burlap sack, didn't you?" "I did open your burlap sack," Miss Ida Mae said. "I was taking just one little peek when that longhorn ran out. My niece Ivy Dean screamed, and I'm afraid her scream scared it to death. And I haven't seen that longhorn since. "Well, it's too bad that happened," said Coyote. "But now I must take your niece." Coyote grabbed Ivy Dean by the arm, put her in his burlap sack, and continued walking down the road. He traveled until he came to the Circle D Ranch. There he met Mrs. Mildred Inez Dodson, who was famous for her jalapeno bean soup. "Could I leave my burlap sack here while I go to Round Rock?" asked Coyote. Mrs. Mildred Inez said, "Sure, you can leave it here. I don't mind at all." "That's very neighborly and kind of you," said Coyote. "But while I'm gone, be sure not to open my burlap sack." Coyote sauntered off down the road grinnin' from ear to ear again. 43 5 Mrs. Mildred Inez was cooking her famous jalapeno bean soup. Her nieces and nephews, who were visiting, couldn't wait to taste it. "Oh, Aunt Mildred Inez," they said, "When can we have a bowl of your delicious jalapeno bean soup?" No one at the Circle D Ranch paid one bit of attention to that tightly tied burlap sack, until Ivy Dean, who was scared and hungry inside of it, smelled the delicious soup, and suddenly she cried out, "Oh Miss, could I have a bowl of that soup too?" Hearing a little girl's voice coming from that burlap sack, Mrs. Mildred Inez quickly opened that sack. When she realized what Coyote was up to, she replaced Ivy Dean with her own pet bobcat and tied that sack back up just as tightly. Now Coyote, he turned right back around, came back to the Circle D Ranch. He saw that the burlap sack was still tightly tied and it felt full. He threw the burlap sack over his shoulder and continued traveling down the road. Soon Coyote stopped to rest under a nice shade tree. He was hungry and began to untie the burlap sack. If Ivy Dean had been in that sack, well, you know what might have happened. But, luckily, she wasn't in that sack. She was at Mrs. Mildred Inez's house eating a bowl of her delicious jalapeno bean soup. And, when Coyote untied the burlap sack, he didn't find a little girl. What he did find was a very mad bobcat. That bobcat sprang out of that sack and began chasing Coyote. Coyote scrambled down that road as fast and far as he could just a-yippin' and a-howlin'. And to this day, Coyote has never been seen anywhere near any of those again. COYOTE

Here are some tips for a smooth performance:

1. Arrange the readers in a row or semicircle facing the audience. They may all stand or they may all sit. If the readers stand, they may take a step forward while reading and step back when finished. If they are sitting, they may stand while reading and sit when finished.

2. If there are two narrators, put one on each side of the stage.

3. Readers may hold their scripts, or the scripts may be placed on music stands.

4. A child may be assigned to read more than one role. It is best if the two characters do not have consecutive lines.

5. Review words that are difficult to pronounce and define words that the readers may not understand.

6. Allow time for the players to read the script silently. Provide pens and markers for them to highlight their lines and make "stage" notes, such as "gruff voice." If time permits, let them read the script aloud before the performance. It is best if the readers know their lines well enough to look at the audience at least part of the time.

7. Ask one player to introduce the title and author of the story. Instruct all players to freeze until the audience is quiet and ready to listen.

When the reading is finished, the readers will freeze for a long moment and then they all bow together.

Narrator 1: Deep in the heart of Texas there lived six armadillos.

Narrator 2: There was Mama Armadillo.

Mama Armadillo: Here I am over here.

Narrator 3: And Papa Armadillo.

Papa Armadillo: I hear someone talking aboutme.

Narrator 4: And 4 baby armadillos. Armadillos always have four babies of thesame sex.

Andrew: I am Andrew.

Armando: I am Armando.

Alex: I am Alex.

Antonio: I am Antonio.

Narrator 1: One day they were sitting in the Texas desert getting readyto eat some worms.

Papa Armadillo: These worms are too slimy.

Mama Armadillo: These worms are too fat.

Armando: My worms are very tasty.

Andrew: Then why are they all over your face?

Alex: You look like an octopus. 52 59 Antonio: Slurp them back into your mouth or one of us will eat them for you.

Mama Armadillo: Boys! Quit giving Armando a hard time, you know he has always been a little awkward.

Narrator 2: Suddenly they heard a horrible monster.

ALL: VR000MM!

Narrator 3: It had four round feet, which rolled as it sped down the road.

Narrator 4: And two HUGE eyes that shot out blinding lights that could make them stop dead in their tracks.

Papa Armadillo: Quick, everyone burrow a hole and hide!

Mama Armadillo: Whatever happens, don't go near the road!

Narrator 1: Soon each armadillo was buried in their own hole.

Papa Armadillo: I am getting too old for this, my hole is too shallow!

Mama Armadillo: This-this hole-hole-hole is too deep-deep-deep (said as if with an echo).

Andrew: Armando! Tuck in your tail!

Alex: It is sticking straight up in the air!

Armando: It won't roll up with me, what should I do?

Antonio: Quick cover it with leaves, maybe it will look like a plant!

Papa Armadillo: Let me do it. Everyone roll into a ball in your hole.

Narrator 2: As Papa Armadillo covered Armando's tail with leaves, the huge road monster came towards them. Suddenly it stopped just when it was about to roll over the plant and the five rolled up armadillos.

Narrator 3: A strange creature opened up the side of the monster and came towards them.

Narrator 4: It had heavy pointed feet and a shell-like hat on its head.

Big Tex: I need to get me some worms if I am going to catch anything at the fishin' hole. Wait, what's that I see yonder?

Narrator 1: Big Tex had spotted the two left over piles of worms and went over to see for himself.

Big Tex: These worms are too slimy. They will never stay on my hook.

Narrator 2: He went and checked out the second pile. 53 Big Tex: These worms are just right, the fish like them fat and juicy.

Narrator 3: Big Tex gathered the worms up in his jar.

Narrator 4: Armando the awkward armadillowas not just covered with leaves. Instead of rolling up in a ball, he had rolled up into a cube instead.

Big Tex: Now if I could just find a nice heavy brick to weight down the lid ofmy tackle box ... Here we are...This brick even comes with a handle!

Narrator 1: He had spotted Armando!

Narrator 2: He quickly grabbed Armando by his long tail and put him into the monster's back.

Narrator 3: With its four round feet spraying gravelevery which way, it roared off down the road.

Andrew: Boy, that was close.

Alex: We dug great holes.

Antonio: I bet he couldn't even see us.

Andrew: But look at our worms!

Papa Armadillo: Somebody has been fingering my worms.

Mama Armadillo: Somebody has taken all my worms away!

Papa Armadillo: Waitwhere is Armando?!

Papa & Mama: That monster must have taken him!

Mama Armadillo: He has been armadillo-napped.

Alex, Antonio, and Andrew: We have to save him!

Narrator 4: Meanwhile Armando was in the back of Big Tex's pick-up.

Armando: Oh no!! How did I get here! I have to get away.

Narrator 1: First he tried to dig a hole in the bed of the pickup but he found the metal floor too hard even for his long claws.

Narrator 2: Next he tried to curl up in a ball, but his cube shape did not even allow him to roll around.

Narrator 3: Soon Big Tex stopped the truck. He picked up Armando the "brick" and his tackle and carried them over to the fishing hole. He got out some bait and then set Armandoon top of his tackle box.

54 61 Narrator 4: It wasn't until Big Texas was totally involved with his fishing that Armando unrolled his head from the cube he had created. Two huge mule-like ears popped up and listened. His tail still stuck straight into the air like a stiff flower stem. Big Tex leaned back against a tree, closed his eyes, and began to sing "The Crawdad Song."

Big Tex: You get a line and I'll get a pole, honey. You get a line and I'll get a pole, babe. You get a line and I'll get a pole and We'll go down to that crawdad' hole, Oh, honey, oh babe, of mine.

Narrator 1: Big Tex was not paying attention, so Armando jumped down from the tackle box and walked over to the road.

Armando: Oh dear, I don't know which way to go!

Narrator 3: He soon discovered that standing beside the road was dangerous for a small and awkward armadillo.

Narrator 4: He could tell by the monster's tracks that he had come from the road leading to the right and slowly began to move in that direction.

Narrator 1: What Armando did not realize that while he had been in the back of Big Tex's pickup a red piece of cloth had caught on his tail and now it was stuck to the tip.

Narrator 2: Huge road monsters roared by and each time Armando tucked his arms and legs in and rolled up into a cube.

Narrator 3: Each time his tail would go straight up in the air and the cloth would wave like a flag.

Narrator 4: Armando did not realize it but that flag kept him from being road kill time after time. Meanwhile, Mama and Papa Armadillo and Alex and Antonio and Andrew were searching high and low, but mostly low, for poor Armando.

Narrator 1: The road monsters would see the flag and dodge around Armando thinking it was some type of hole or hazard that was marked in the road by road workers.

Papa Armadillo: What is that up ahead?

Mama Armadillo: Nothing but a flag in the road. Ignore that, we have to find Armando!

Andrew: Wait Mom, the flag is attached to something like a box or a brick.

Alex: Sometimes the flag goes down!

Antonio: It's Armando!

Papa Armadillo: There you are Armando!

Mama Armadillo: We have been so worried about you! 55 013 Papa Armadillo: We thought you might already be road kill!

Armando: No, Big Tex grabbed me but forgot all about me when he stopped to fish.

Mama Armadillo: Don't tell me he is the one who went through our worms.

Andrew: Yes, and he has taken all the fat ones to fish with.

Papa Armadillo: Goes to show you that you can't trust those humanswhat with their grimy hands all over our food.

4 Baby Armadillos: YUCKY!

Papa Armadillo: If we keep close to Armando whenever we are near the road, we will be safe.

Antonio: Armando will act as a flag and the huge monsters will veer away from us.

Alex: Armando will save us all from being road kill!

Narrator 2: And so the family of armadillos moved further away from the road

Narrator 3: And when any of them went near the road they took Armando and his red cloth with them.

Narrator 4: And from then on the Armadillo family was very thankful that Armando was an awkward armadillo.

Travis: I have used my automatic signature, "Victory or Death," to really show I mean business.

Bowie: Sam Houston sent me an email earlier to either defend the Alamo or destroy it. I deleted it AND emptied my recycle bin after receiving it. I will never surrender.

Narrator 1: A few men arrived from a nearby fort but it was not nearly enough.

Narrator 2: By the morning of February 24 Bowie was very ill. They did blood tests, a CAT scan, and an MRI and decided that he either had tuberculosis or pneumonia.

Travis: I am going out to assess our troops. I am going to issue a computerized survey to all the men.

Texian Soldier: We need to know who is ready and willing to die for Texas!

Travis: It will be like drawing a line in the sand. All those who are willing to fight and die with me will have to cross over the line.

Texian Soldier: Look! One man has gotten in a helicopter to get away, but that is all.

Travis: Don't worry, even he has my pager number if he changes his mind.

Bowie: (in a weak voice) Now everyone here will fight.

Travis: Keep him stable, put in an IV and do a CBC stat. We will only use the defibrillator if there is any hope that any of us will survive.

Bowie: Go on and fight. Care flight will never make it here in time to save me. I will fight to the bitter end.

Narrator 1: In the end all 189 defenders died at the Battle of the Alamo.

Narrator 2: And almost 600 of Santa Anna's 18,000 men died as well.

Narrator 1: The battle is remembered as a symbol of courage and the ultimate sacrifice for one's beliefs.

This document is covered by a signed "Reproduction Release (Blanket)" form (on file within the ERIC system), encompassing all or classes of documents from its source organization and, therefore, does not require a "Specific Document" Release form.

This document is Federally-funded, or carries its own permission to reproduce, or is otherwise in the public domain and, therefore, may be reproduced by ERIC without a signed Reproduction Release form (either "Specific Document" or "Blanket").
