NAME:

the basketball match

Cango is a very fun and smart kangaroo.
– Kangaroo moms have a bag in their belly – she tells her little brothers – to play basketball with their children!
- I'm ready! – Cangolito answers.
The ball is already between the front legs.
– Go get it, Mom!
Kangaroo mom stands well in front of the little children and opens her bag wide.
– And whoops! I won! – Cango exclaims, hitting the ball squarely – Your turn, Cangolito!

The little brother gets ready, smiles at Mom, takes a good look at the bag… and misses! The ball rolled right to the side…
Cangolito starts again, plays a little, takes one more shot and… Misses again…
– This game is very difficult! – He grumbles – I'm too small!
– Don't cry anymore, dear – says Mom in her sweet voice – You know, my bag is mainly for making great caresses…
Cangolito jumped for joy inside and there he fell asleep…
