AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'It was time for Joey to leave the warm protection of his mother's pouch, to learn to fend for himself in the broad, dry bush country of Australia. There were many things for this timid, awkward baby to see and explore before the day when, as a big red 'roo, he would lead a kangaroo herd of his own. His boxing match with a water buffalo, thrilling flight from a bush fire, and deep feeling for Little Blue - these were but few of the experiences that prepared Joey for that day.' (Inside dust jacket)
