Karen is a strong and independent kangaroo who decides she deserves a trip to the nail salon. Along the way, she meets some new friends who are in need of her help. Will she make it to the nail salon? Or will she sacrifice her time to help some fellow animals in trouble? Read to find out!There are books about women being independent, and there are books about how everyone is beautiful, but there are no books about how kindness makes us feel beautiful. Today, a lot of young girls and even boys too, think that their bodies are the ultimate expression of self worth. Magazines and media are teaching young children that you have to have the perfect body, perfect skin, fancy clothes, wear lots of makeup, and beyond to be beautiful. While it is okay to want to have a healthy body, beauty products, and nice clothes, that does not define you. Your actions do. This book will be a good example to young children that beauty comes from the inside.

Little Dot had lost her way in the bush. She knew it, and was very frightened. She was too frightened in fact to cry, but stood in the middle of a little dry, bare space, looking around her at the scraggy growths of prickly shrubs that had torn her little dress to rags, scratched her bare legs and feet till they bled, and pricked her hands and arms as she had pushed madly through the bushes, for hours, seeking her home. Sometimes she looked up to the sky. But little of it could be seen because of the great tall trees that seemed to her to be trying to reach heaven with their far-off crooked branches. She could see little patches of blue sky between the tangled tufts of her way in the and was very drooping leaves, and, as the dazzling sunlight had faded, she began to think it was getting late, and that very soon it would be night.
"Meet Oliver, a young kangaroo whose mother has decided to help another family to have a child. Go wtih him as he takes you through - step-by-step - the wonderful journey of surrogacy!"--Back cover.
With Waypoint Kangaroo, Chen makes his debut with this outer space thriller. Kangaroo isn’t your typical spy. Sure, he has extensive agency training, access to bleeding-edge technology, and a ready supply of clever (to him) quips and retorts. But what sets him apart is “the pocket.” It’s a portal that opens into an empty, seemingly infinite, parallel universe, and Kangaroo is the only person in the world who can use it. But he's pretty sure the agency only keeps him around to exploit his superpower. After he bungles yet another mission, Kangaroo gets sent away on a mandatory “vacation:” an interplanetary cruise to Mars. While he tries to make the most of his exile, two passengers are found dead, and Kangaroo has to risk blowing his cover. It turns out he isn’t the only spy on the ship–and he’s just starting to unravel a massive conspiracy which threatens the entire Solar System. Now, Kangaroo has to stop a disaster which would shatter the delicate peace that’s existed between Earth and Mars ever since the brutal Martian Independence War. A new interplanetary conflict would be devastating for both sides. Millions of lives are at stake. Weren’t vacations supposed to be relaxing?
