Well, the kangaroo one is probably Josephine Wants to Dance by Jackie French.

Justine Clarke has a song The Dancing Chicken.

And google throws up Chicken Dance by Tammi Sauer.

Best of luck with your search.

Maybe The Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander?

First book The Book of Three.

First published in the 1960s, it was inspired by Welsh mythology and uses names and terms from there.

Maybe the Audrey of the Outback series by Christine Harris? First book Audrey of the Outback.

Edit: sorry, publication date is later than you specified.

Australian books but good for that age - enjoyed by my daughter and my niece who have both read Percy Jackson and Harry Potter: Friday Barnes by R.A. Spratt. Currently 4 books in the series. Language is straightforward, mysteries are reasonable, but doesn't talk down to the reader and lol funny.

Graphic novels such as El Deafo by Cece Bell and Flora and Ulysses: The Illuminated Adventures by Kate DiCamillo.

The Sisters Grimm series, first book The Fairy-Tale Detectives, by Michael Buckley.

Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine.

Anything by Michael Morpurgo.

And, for something totally different, a book about mathematical concepts. The Number Devil: A Mathematical Adventure by Hans Magnus Enzensberger.

The Tycoon's Pregnant Mistress by Maya Banks?

This sounds about right but cover doesn't match your description.

Sunnyside Up with Red Ketchup by Ashley Andrews

DiCarlo Brides series by Heather Tullis.

Thanks!"

Sleeping with the Enemy by Tracy Solheim?

The author? Kristen Ashley.

?"

maybe "beneath her"?

Bunny and the Bear by Eve Langlais or Beast Behaving Badly by Shelly Laurenston?

Neither quite fit the description; just putting them out there since sometimes books get mixed up in our heads.

Guess: Guarding Laura by Susan Vaughan (but they did know each other in the past)

Judith Kerr's Goodbye Mog? First published 2002 and the last of her Mog series.

Almost?

Sounds like something from Siren publishing, in particular the LoveXtreme collection. (view spoiler)[They're menage with many men and very erotic. Can include kinks (bdsm, exhibition, multiple partners etc). (hide spoiler)] They are often (usually) HFNs with a multi-book story-arc.

Might be worth checking their website: http://sirenpublishing.com/index.php?...
