About this listen
The Kindhearted Kangaroo and the Lost Little Lemur is a beautifully crafted children's tale filled with vibrant descriptions and heartwarming moments. Set in the picturesque Australian Outback, the story follows the journey of Kiki, a kindhearted kangaroo, and Lenny, a lost lemur from Madagascar.
The narrative begins with Kiki discovering Lenny in distress, and without hesitation, she pledges to help him find his way home. Their journey is a testament to Kiki's unwavering kindness as they traverse rivers, climb hills, and navigate through thunderstorms. Kiki's kindness is not only a comfort to Lenny but also inspires all the creatures they meet along the way, from playful platypuses to wise old owls.
As the story unfolds, Kiki's acts of kindness become legendary, transforming her into a beacon of hope and compassion in the animal kingdom. The narrative culminates with a touching farewell at the shore as Lenny boards a ship back to Madagascar, leaving Kiki with a heart full of joy and a life forever enriched by their shared journey.
This enchanting tale is a celebration of kindness, resilience, and the bonds of friendship. It teaches children the profound impact of kindness and how it can transcend boundaries, making it a valuable addition to any child's listening collection. The story concludes with a powerful message: Kindness is a gift that enriches both the giver and the receiver, making the world a better place.

Books were always Sarah Clarkson's delight. Raised in the company of the lively Anne of Green Gables, the brave Pevensie children of Narnia, and the wise Austen heroines, she discovered reading early on as a daily gift, a way of encountering the world in all its wonder. But what she came to realize as an adult was just how powerfully books had shaped her as a woman to live a story within that world, to be a lifelong learner, to grasp hope in struggle, and to create and act with courage. She's convinced that books can do the same for you.

The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world.

Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Mary Lennox starts her life as an unhappy victim of circumstance. After the loss of her parents, she moves to rural Yorkshire to live with a distant uncle where she resents the wildness of the countryside. At first, she struggles to find a place in this new existence. Although unsure about her surroundings and its occupants, through the gentle guidance of the maid she gradually becomes interested in the story of Mrs Craven, who apparently used to spend her time in a garden at the house, the key to which has vanished.
