Diving (with hat still on) deep into the ocean, Jonas discovers Blue looking ill on the ocean floor. He has swallowed hundreds of plastic bags, mistaking them for jellyfish. Returning the favour of being saved, Jonas removes all the waste and Blue is well again. Over the years, those who have seemed to me to be the most happy, contented, and fulfilled have always been the people who have lived the most outgoing and unselfish lives.”Every child loves an empty box and here, with the help of some magic, it contains a fantasy birthday party. The latest version of Margot’s favourite book “I love you, Blue Kangaroo!” is now in the shops and available online… Lily’s favourite toy is Blue Kangaroo and she takes him to bed every night. Friends and relatives keep adding to her collection of cuddly toys until gradually Blue Kangaroo is ousted. The way he is returned to first place in her favour brings a very satisfactory resolution to the story, reminiscent of Shirley Hughes’ Dogger.

Although the story or the illustrations didn't blow me away, I loved that this was about a child caring about what is happening in the ocean. A boy meets a whale who is full of plastic bags. He decides to speak out about what is happening to the ocean and the sea creatures. Age 3-5 Lily loves Blue Kangaroo but when she’s given new toy animals for her birthday, he feels neglected and forgotten. When Kangaroo finds a new friend in Lily’s baby brother, Lily realises just how much Blue Kangaroo means to her. I love you Blue Kangaroo! is a story of a child and her favourite toy which makes connections to all kinds of childhood relationships, (with parents, siblings and friends) as Lily experiences feelings of affection, jealousy and sibling rivalry. A simple, yet adorably delightful tale with powerful messaging about the importance of protecting the oceans.

Every night Blue Kangaroo falls fast asleep, cuddled in Lily's arms. But as new toy animals start arriving, Blue Kangaroo worries that there just isn't enough room for him anymore. When he goes missing, Lily looks everywhere for him and it turns out NONE of the other toys means as much to her as her first and favourite Blue Kangaroo. I Love You Blue is a very good books to help teach children the importance of keeping our oceans clean for all people and sea life.

Our oceans are dying and the young will inherit this planet. They must learn to care for it and protect it. This books is a wonderful way to introduce this concept of saving the whales and the oceans, caring for the environment, cleaning up beaches, reducing plastic waste and instilling a deep love for the sea. Grocery bags, being the main thing in the whale's mouth, was so sad to see, as I know it’s the tragic reality. Can you perform the story?
