Children turned out at Potomac Library to meet a live kangaroo and a wallaby visiting from Roos2U, sponsored by the Friends of the Library, Potomac Chapter.

Children had a chance to learn about what kangaroos eat and where and how they live, and to pet the kangaroo.

There were two animals at the event, a 7-year-old female Kangaroo named Boomeroo, and an 8-month-old female Wallaby named Clara.
