"Dot and the Kangaroo" is a children's fantasy novel written by Ethel C. Pedley, first published in 1899. The story follows the adventures of a five-year-old girl named Dot, who is lost in the Australian outback. The kind grey kangaroo who takes care of Dot on their adventures gives her special berries, so she can understand and talk to all the creatures in the bush. Their journey takes them deep into the outback where she meets various Australian animals, including a koala, a wallaby, a kookaburra, and a platypus, who all teach Dot about the importance of the true value of the land and the animals that live there. Dot seems to find more than just her way home in the story as she comes to understand how important it is for everyone including our animals, birds, our land and habitat to have protection and a sense of identity that they have since lost due to the arrival of Europeans.
These lessons from Dot's adventure in the bush, she takes home in her own backyard to protect the land she has so these creatures can have a place with clean fresh water and protected to live in peace. We all can learn a bit from Dot's time in the outback. Ethel Pedley's conservation message even after many years still holds strong importance for all of us today. With its imaginative storyline and vivid descriptions of the Australian landscape, "Dot and the Kangaroo" has become a beloved classic of Australian children's literature.
