Kersplatypus

By Mitchell, Susan & Rogers, Sherry A.

Publishers Summary:
When a strange little creature appears out of nowhere after the big rains, Australian animals wonder what in the world he could possibly be! His fur, feet, tail, and duck-like bill remind each animal of something different. But with a down-under spirit, they all pitch in to help him discover where he belongs.

A heart-warming story with an unmistakable Aussie flare, Kersplatypus proves that with a little determination (and some really good friends) you can pick yourself up when you fall and keep on going.
