Harriet is a hardworking kangaroo mom. She delivers the mail each day, carrying loads of letters and packages in her humongous pouch. After a tough week of work, Harriet decides to take time off to go to the beach with her little Joey. The good-hearted Harriet embarks on her journey, carrying Joey in her comfy, spacious pouch. Along the way, she encounters a group of hilarious and quirky marsupials, who also want to go to the beach and ask Harriet to carry their stuff—from swim fins to a kayak.

Sarah Laver’s endearing watercolors of marsupials capture the playfulness of the story, the memorable characters, and Harriet’s long journey to the peaceful beach.
