A fun book is packed with fascinating facts about the ever-popular subject of kangaroos.

A unique symbol of Australia, Kangaroos are known and loved the world over. Did You Know? ...
  • A kangaroo can hop as fast as fifty kilometres per hour.
  • When newly born, a baby kangaroo has no fur and measures only two centimetres long.
  • As well as kangaroos that live on the ground, there are several species that live in trees.
Each spread covers a different aspect of kangaroo life, from ‘Getting around’ and ‘What’s for dinner?’ to ‘Special adaptations’ and ‘Life in a pouch’.

In addition to the familiar ground-living species such as Red and Grey Kangaroos, the book includes the more mysterious members of the Tree-Kangaroo family from Queensland and New Guinea.

Bite-sized chunks of interesting information coupled with stunning photographs combine to make this an engaging and entertaining introduction to the subject that’s bound to capture the imagination of any reader.
