Interview with a Kangaroo: And Other Marsupials Too

by Andy Seed, Nick East (Illustrator)

If you could talk to animals, what would you ask? Well, after interviewing a big growly tiger and a huge bitey shark for the first two books in this series, I decided to go for something a little more friendly and bouncy this time. You can’t get a beast with much more BOING than a kangaroo, so that is where I started! Readers will learn about 10 extraordinary marsupials as they step up to the mic and share their habits, behavior, likes and dislikes, favorite foods, and more. Each animal has its own story to tell… and its own attitude! In this fun and fact-filled book, bite-sized text in a question-and-answer format is paired with colorful and engaging illustrations throughout, perfect for emerging or reluctant readers, or any young animal enthusiast who enjoys a bit of humor! This lineup of marvelous marsupials is interviewed by the brave, award-winning author, Andy Seed, who risks his life to ask the questions you've always wanted to know. Features a kangaroo, koala, Virginia opossum, Tasmanian Devil, numbat, bandicoot, sugar glider, quokka and spotted cuscus. Plus, ideas for how to do your part to help endangered species. Look out for other titles in the Interview with a Tiger and Interview with a Shark!
