SynopsisCaldecott Honor winner David Ezra Stein's delightful tale of a baby kangaroo's first hops toward independence is perfect for board book audiences. Joey wants to go exploring, but at first he isn't sure he's ready to leave Mama's safe, warm pouch. Touching on a universal childhood experience, this sweet tale celebrates trying new things., The creator of "Leaves" presents a delightful new tale of a curious baby kangaroo who wants to explore the exciting world around him. Full color.
Great little book for preschoolers. I used it with a lesson on facing new situations with confidence. I do wish it came in a bigger size- pictures are more easily seen by groups of children.
