Kangis Kanga is a one of a kind kangaroo. He has magic feet and soon realises that every time he jumps he can go as high as he wants and is able to travel anywhere, even into space, way beyond the moon and stars. He lives in a big zoo in a place called Perth, in Australia, and is known to all the animals because they are fascinated to hear what he’s been up to upon his return from faraway places. He is friendly, funny and always takes his little companion, a field mouse named Mel, with him on his exciting adventures. The two friends learn some amazing facts about our universe whenever he takes that giant leap. Join him on his latest expedition and discover some unusual facts about our solar system.
