Elevator Pitch:

"Picture Tarzan meets The World’s Greatest Athlete in the Australian Outback. JohnnyRoo’s an infant rescued by a kangaroo after his biologist parents crash in the wild. Raised in her pouch, he grows up hopping among the clan, battling rivals and poachers who slaughter his adoptive mom. Captured and sold to a brutal circus, he’s freed by a gutsy journalist at 13 and smashes world track records with his kangaroo-powered legs. But when poachers kidnap him for a payday, JohnnyRoo fights back, reunites with his long-lost parents, and saves his clan. It’s a wild, heart-pounding adventure about family, resilience, and finding where you belong—human or roo."
