Summary

Lily and Blue Kangaroo—a friendship forever!

A heart-warming, festive story featuring Lily and her much-loved toy, Blue Kangaroo, read by Joanna Lumley.

It’s Christmas Eve, and Lily is excitedly wondering if Father Christmas will come. She has made cards for everyone, helped to decorate the house and put presents under the tree.

'This one is just for you, Blue Kangaroo!' she says.

'Just for me!' thinks Blue Kangaroo.

But Blue Kangaroo doesn’t have a present for Lily, and he lies awake worrying. Is there anyone who might be able to help?
