Chris: Hi, Beth. What is that big book you’re reading?

Beth: Hi, Chris. It’s a book about all the different kinds of animals found throughout Australia.

Chris: Why are you reading it?

Beth: It’s really fun. These animals are so cute. Let me show you some pictures. Here is a kangaroo, this is a dingo, and that grey one over there is a koala.

Chris: Which one is your favorite?

Beth: I like koalas. They’re the cutest. They spend most of their time in trees and only live in Australia. Which animal do you like the most?

Chris: I like kangaroos. I think it is amazing they have pouches for their babies to stay in. I wish I had a pouch. I would hide my valuable stuff there.

Beth: You do have a pouch, Chris! It is called a pocket, and you have two on your pants.

Chris: Oh, yeah. Ha ha. Hey, are Kangaroos endangered?

Beth: Nope. Actually, there are too many Kangaroos in Australia.
