Kangapoo and Possumpoo live in Kakadu, along with other animal friends. Possumpoo is very mischievous. He falls through Kangapoos roof and lands on his tail. Kangapoo's tail is flat, so Possumpoo tries to clamp his tail to shape. Kangapoo over reacts about his tail, making Possumpoo run away to find another tail. What will happen to Kangapoo's tail, will Possumpoo cut off his tail? The end of the story captures their sense of humour which rises above all of their problems. Possumpoo once again falls through the roof and once again Kangapoo has the problem of his tail, but this time, Kangapoo has fooled Possumpoo by missing his tail.
