The Kangaroo Book
By Taylor Anne Cole
The Kangaroo mom was having a baby.
The baby was jumping away.
The Mom was sad.
(so was the tree - I think!)
The Mom is happy win (when) she found her baby.
The Lion scared the Kangaroos away.
The End
Don't you think that's just wonderful??? I was so excited she wanted to write the story to go with the pictures she had drawn (maybe a month ago!)
She's not the only busy bee around here, I worked on the blue dress... making alterations to fit my slim girl. I took out 1/2 inch from the side seams on the bodice, then increased my seam in the skirt, and also ended up adding two little pleats centered in the front. I tried it on her and it fits perfectly! Woo Hoo!!!

Well done, Taylor Anne! Great job on your first book. I really like the drawing of the baby kangaroo with its mom. You're an author and an artist!
Don't you love it when a sewing project fits just right? Alterations are never my favourite aspect to sewing, but sometimes they're necessary and I always figuratively hold my breath until I know they've worked out.
I just love little stories written by kids!! She did such a wonderful job.
And mom did a wonderful job on the dress!!
Em, what a gorgeous dress! Good job on all of the details. Even if it ends up being a little too big, Taylor Anne will love wearing it now and next year.
Her book is so cute too - I can't wait for my little ones to start putting their thoughts on paper.
The dress looks great! And your daughter's story is wonderful. I'm sure she appreciates your enthusiasm. I remember my first book was "the pot and the polar bear", and my parents just gushed over it. It made me feel so special.
Beautiful story Taylor Anne ! You are a very clever girl.
It's a fabulous book, she should be really proud. The dress is nice, too :)
