When Maggie Banton jumps into bed each night, she looks over to the baby kangaroo nestled beneath the blankets. The seven-year-old loves taking care of her new companion, often checking to ensure the joey is as cosy and comfortable as possible.
Maggie's mum Tiffany says the pair have become inseparable since they discovered 'Star' stranded on the side of the road.
"They are best friends," Tiffany, 33, tells New Idea. "Maggie is so content with Star's company and does not leave her side."
The Banton family, from Kangaroo Island in SA, took on the incredible feat to make sure the joey was safe and cared for following an accident last December.
The young joey was found next to her dead mother, who had been hit by a car on Stars Road.
