      Subject: "Did you know that kangaroos are the only large animals that hop to move -- or that they are unable to jump backward?

Each title offers a complete picture of the animal - from birth to adulthood -- and describes its place in our world, including how humans impact it and its environment."--From https://www.bookdepository.com.
