Canadian girls seem to like this one. Maybe an American will too.
Okay, Kevin was a Kangaroo. He looked liek a normal kangaroo, smelled like a normal kangaroo, sounded like a normal kangaroo. Only, he couldn't jump
He just sort of walked
It may have been because his parents never taught him how to hop, or that there was something wrong with his legs -- But that's not important!
He had a tough childhood. All the other roo's would hop around him and tease him. No-hop! No-hop! They would call him
Sometimes he would get angry and want to fight the other roo's, but he couldn't hop, so he could never catch them
How frustrating it was for him!
He eventually settled into what he thought was his life. A normal, mundane life of no hopping and just putzing around.
One day he found a shiny bottle cap.
It was so shiny, he picked it up
POOF!
A magic koala popped out of thin air.
"I'm King Koala" he says
"I will grant you any wish you'd like!"
Kevin thought long and hard
How nice would it be to be able to hop around like the other roo's
They couldn't make fun of him anymore, and if they did, he could catch up and beat them
He was about to wish for just that, but something better came to mind
He wished that kangaroo became pests, that they tasted good, and that their meat was very healthy
"So it shall be!" says King Koala
And that's why Australians eat kangaroo
