(4) PS Illustrated by Jill Dubin. "Over in Australia / Looking like a kangaroo / Lived a smaller wallaby / And her little joeys two." In this not-very-well-rhymed counting book, various Australian animal babies "snap," "munch," or "splash" with their parents. Double-page cut-paper collages suit the natural settings. Back matter includes a map and additional information about each animal's physical characteristics, diet, and habitat. Reading list, websites.
