PreS-Gr 2—This simple picture book answers a series of questions about this Australian animal, giving readers just the right amount of information while offering many opportunities for further exploration. The clear, lifelike watercolor, ink, and colored pencil illustrations depict wallaroos in different poses and situations, showing where they live, what they eat, and how they raise their young. The book will be effective in storytimes and for classroom units.—Sharon Grover, Hedberg Public Library, Janesville, WI
