There's an Ouch in My Pouch

Willaby Wallaby is not happy. There’s an ouch in Mum’s pouch, and it’s making him grouch! So off he hops to the Blue Billabong to find a new pouch to sleep in. But when Willaby has a scary brush with cunning Ma Dingo and bounces back to Mum, he realises that the ouch is just his new baby sister, and that he doesn’t really need a pouch now after all. He’s a big boy now – free to bounce and hop around! Packed with exotic Australian animals, this is a gorgeous, comical rhyming story about embracing independence and discovering the world.
