Description by Author:
At
the Flaky Acres Feather Farm, Roo-wallaby catches Roo-rooster plucking out the
oily black seeds from a lemony sunflower.
This
would be fine except there's been a long, hot drought, and the billabong is
dry. Small Babba-Roo needs to feed.
When
Roo-rooster calls for help, grouchy Captain Quokka appears. Can he make peace?
After all, he is a cousin of Roo-wallaby.
Everywhere
Roo-rooster turns, another wallaby cousin appears. What will happen when the
ground begins to shake and the claws and bare nose of a wombat appear?
Get
This! Especially if you are introducing Australia to a classroom, it includes
an Aussie Glossary of Terms!
Nocturnal
marsupials and macropods abound at Flaky Acres; bilbies, quirky quokka, even
cousin koala appear. Problem-solving, zoology, farm and fowl, reading and
language skills are hopping from this Aussie kingdom tale.
Another
remarkable CAPTURE BOOKS title.
(Ages
4-6, 7-8, 9-10).
