AMBROSE KANGAROO: A Story That Never Ends

By

Publisher: Scribner

Ambrose is a beguiling young kangaroo who is tired of his mother's pouch so he runs away and meets all sorts of fascinating Australian creatures, such as Albert Platypus, Eloise Lyre Bird, the Emus, Koala Bears, Kookaburras, Rabbits, and Sheep. His mother rescues him, he says that he will never go off again, but temptation is too strong so you turn back to the beginning of the book and start again. We have already watched three and four year olds with this, it has great charm for them and it's never too early to learn about the strange animals of other lands.
