What do you get if you cross a hop-challenged kangaroo, a know-it-all galah, a rusty Holden ute and a fearsome bushfire? A sizzling tale of outback adventure featuring thrills and spills, springs and dings and every rhyme in between. Written by Jeremy Southern, illustrated by Amberly Kramhoft. JUMP IN!!!! Alice the Kangaroo is an epic tale of how one kangaroo, with the help of a galah, overcomes her inability to jump. After losing her mob Alice and Gary the galah invent a way for her to put the "spring" back into her hop. After some initial fails Alice heroically saves the day and is rewarded accordingly, I wonder if you can guess how? Told in rollicking rhyme this is a story about disability, determination, and bravery scattered throughout with some very Aussie humour. - Jackie Hosking, Pass It On
