What is If I had a kangaroo about?
Imagine having a kangaroo as a pet! In this lively rhyming picture book, a child dreams about all the bouncing, hopping and extraordinary fun they could share with their springy new friend. A kangaroo might make trampolining easy, carry you to school in its pouch and turn everyday activities into wild adventures. But would such a powerful, enormous animal really fit at home? With playful ideas and bold illustrations, this humorous story celebrates imagination and the joy of wondering what life might be like with an unusual pet.
