A new book in the clever, funny, and informative nonfiction picture book series that focuses on endangered species.
Meet the quokka. Most of them live on a tiny island off of Western Australia. Like their relatives kangaroos and wallabies, they hop to get around and carry their babies in pouches.
People say they are the happiest animal in the world. That's because they're very friendly, and their faces look like they are built for smiling--perfect for taking selfies with!
Chock-full of amazing, kid-friendly facts and inviting artwork from the #1 New York Times bestselling, Caldecott Honoree illustrator of Blackout, the Meet the Wild Things series introduces young readers to endangered animals from around the globe, told from the points of view of the animals themselves.
