The Strange Life Cycle of a Kangaroo

Kangaroo mothers give birth to live babies after just 33 days of gestation! Then, babies—whose hind legs haven't fully developed yet—climb into their mother's pouch to drink special milk and continue to develop. This fascinating life cycle is detailed for readers in this volume, all told through age-appropriate language and content. Full-color photographs and fun fact boxes supplement the main content and a graphic organizer clearly shows the kangaroo life cycle from beginning to end to aid readers' understanding.
