Summary: I love this book (with slight hestitations...)
Comment: I love this book, mostly because my son does...it is a sweet book that teaches a little about differences (Mother Katy Kangaroo doesn't have a pocket in which to carry her son Freddy like all the other mothers), it teaches ways she tried to adapt, then the perfect and wonderful ending where all is well with a big apron full of pockets for all the animals. The thing that bothered me was that Katy cried so much- and how (although briefly) Freddy seemed to feel as though it was his job to solve his mother's problems. Objectively, Katy has situational depression :) due to her lack of pocket. Honestly, I changed some of the "cried" and "crying" words (with my handy-dandy whiteout and a marker) to "thought", "thinking", "worried", etc. I also changed the part where she "screamed" at the owl to "spoke loudly" to the owl. I know this is overkill, but if we're trying to teach them to respect elders and be polite...and I read this book to him six times a day :)

Summary: From the Same Artist as Curious George
Comment: This is a really delightful story book illustrated by H.A. Rey, who also created the beloved Curious George books. In the same fun-loving and colorful style, the story of Katy, a mama kanagroo with no pocket for her baby, comes to life. Katy searches high and low and interviews many other kinds of animals to try to find a way to carry her baby, Freddy. In the end she gets some great advice and finds a solution that is pure genius. The story is really cute but H.A. Rey's utterly charming illustrations make this into a treat that should NOT be missed. The details of the various animals are so jolly, the faces so expressive. The pictures just exude happiness. I believe that once you share this with a little one it will become a family favorite.
