Illustrated by
Janine Dawson.
Bobbie, a little wallaby, is good at jumping, twirling, and somersaults, but no matter how hard she tries, she can't do a split. With encouragement from her friends Koala, Wombat, and Possum, Bobbie not only succeeds, but soon has the other animals doing splits, too. The plot is thin, but joyful, energetic illustrations enhance this story of determination and perseverance.
