Jab and Ru

By Michelle MacNamara

Ru is a proud Australian black-necked stork who loves his fishing spot and doesn't like to share. Far away in the Americas lives Jab, a friendly young jabiru stork who's always ready for an adventure.

When a silly mail mix-up brings Jab all the way to Ru's swamp, these two tall white storks; who look like cousins but live on opposite sides of the world... discover how sharing and kindness can turn strangers into friends.

Told in lively rhyme, and featuring 14 Fun Facts about real jabirus for curious kids, Jab and Ru is a delightful story that teaches the simple joys of opening your world to others.
