Once, Kangaroo couldn’t jump. Find out how that changed in this charming picture book retelling of one of Rudyard Kipling’s famous Just So Stories, with simple text and gorgeous illustrations by John Joven.

I have read this book

I liked the animals they used but it was a little boring.

I liked the kangaroo the best. I liked it because it looked good. I would tell my friends to read it
