There was once a baby koala, so soft and round that all who saw her loved her. Her name was Koala Lou.
Koala Lou is the first born in a large family. She feels sad because her mother seems too busy to pay her any attention. Perhaps if she wins the tree-climbing at the Bush Olympics her mother might notice her again . . . Koala Lou starts her training right away!
An Australian classic by the author and illustrator of Hunwick's Egg.
