Roo Road Rules by Celia Berrell

1 Comment

Why do kangaroos cross the road?
To get to the other side!
But ’roos don’t know their highway code
and some of them have died.

When travelling through Aussie bush,
best keep your eyes peeled wide.
Watch for signs and please don’t rush –
especially ’round dawn and dusk –
as that’s the time when ’roos might hide
along a lonely roadside.
