Colouroos

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Deep in the heart of the Red Centre lived a mob of red kangaroos. During a long, hot drought, the thirsty roos went searching for water.

When three different groups of kangaroos - red, blue and yellow - all come to the same watering hole, they aren't sure what to make of each other at first. But soon they discover that they aren't so different after all. As the three groups become one, new colours appear, and soon the roos have created a beautiful rainbow!

On the surface, this is a fun, light-hearted story about the colour spectrum, but on a deeper level, it is a beautiful celebration of diversity.
