A return of an old friend

This was a surprise when my daughter picked it out. I had forgotten this wonderful story from my childhood. It's a great story about the troubles of Katy as she can't carry around her kid since she has no pocket. She goes on a quest seeking the advice of other animals and eventually goes to the city to find a pocket. Surprisingly, my daughter got concerned about the end and what will happen to other animals as Katy put them into her new pockets. The pictures of the kangeroo crying might bother some rather sensitvie children but overall it's a wonderful story that will be requested to be read several times.

From the Same Artist as Curious George

This is a really delightful story book illustrated by H.A. Rey, who also created the beloved Curious George books. In the same fun-loving and colorful style, the story of Katy, a mama kanagroo with no pocket for her baby, comes to life. Katy searches high and low and interviews many other kinds of animals to try to find a way to carry her baby, Freddy. In the end she gets some great advice and finds a solution that is pure genius. The story is really cute but H.A. Rey's utterly charming illustrations make this into a treat that should NOT be missed. The details of the various animals are so jolly, the faces so expressive. The pictures just exude happiness. I believe that once you share this with a little one it will become a family favorite.

Right Up There

This book is right up there with my other favorite children's book, THE COUNTRY BUNNY WITH THE GOLDEN SHOES. It features a wonderful mother up against serious odds, a patient child and a very kind person who helps them. My son loved this book and I bought it recently to read to my 4-l/2 year old neighbor. It amazes me that no one I know (except my son! ) remembers it!

Great story!

I'm buying this book for my child because when I was little it was one of my favorite stories. I hope that he will love this story of a mother kangaroo and her baby as much as I did when I was young.

Cute Little Story

Katy No-Pocket is a cute story about a mother kangaroo who does not have any pockets to carry her baby, so she searches the town and country to find a solution to her problem. My four-year-old loves the story and asks me to read it over and over. It is just a charming tale without any violent or scary situations.
