A heartwarming twist on a classic rhyme about a little girl, a kangaroo, and a shared bond.

Set in the Australian Outback in the late 1800s, Mary Had a Little Roo is a charming twist on a beloved nursery rhyme. When young Mary finds an orphaned kangaroo joey, she raises him with love and care. But as Lamb the roo grows, it becomes clear he belongs in the wild. With warmth and gentle humour, this beautifully illustrated story explores the balance between love and letting go.
