In this tender tale about growing up, a young kangaroo learns that what’s familiar isn’t always what’s best.
Mama Kangaroo loves her little Jo-Jo very much, but it’s time for him to leave the safety of her pocket. But Jo-Jo is content where he is, even when Mama tells him about all the amazing things he could see and do if he were to explore the world.
Sweet illustrations portray the young kangaroo’s fear of leaving his mother and the strong bond between mother and child.
Little Jo-Jo is no Runaway Bunny. He would much prefer to remain in the warmth and safety of his mother's pocket than to explore the world outside. When his mother asks if he wouldn't rather be like the wild wind, a bird that flies, a butterfly that frolics among the sweet flowers, or a lizard drawing in the sand, Jo-Jo professes he already enjoys these things nestled in her pocket, close to her heartbeat. When his mother lures him out and he discovers that her heart is not in her pocket but higher up, he is willing to take on the world for adventure. As for his mother, she will always hold his heart in her pocket. Here is a gentle and sweet story just perfect for sharing with little ones taking those first hesitant steps away from the security of mom. Watercolors in a soft neutral palette invoke the desert environment and the tenderness of Jo-Jo's mother. Reviewer: Beverley Fahey
