In Mom's Pouch (Compound Words)

I am a tree kangaroo. I live in the rain forest with my mom.

I look out at the world from my mom's pouch.

When I hop out, I see a blue treat.

Mom lets me keep it in her pouch.

A tree kangaroo can go up high. I find a sweet treat to eat!

I will not chew it now. Can I save it in Mom's pouch?

Kapok flowers start to fall. It is a fun treat.

And Mom lets me keep it in her pouch.

I get so tired and I need a big sleep.

But Mom will not let me get into her pouch.

Why did she say I can't get in? I am so upset I run from her.

Then I see some more tree kangaroos. One has a small baby in her pouch. The older kid grew too big. He can't get himself in too.

I think my mom must have a bub too.

Mom, do you have a new bub?

Mom shows me the new bub in her pouch with all the gifts I put in.

I am the big kid now!
