“Big firsts, like play school or a new house, go down easier with Kevin around. Little ones clinging to a grown-up’s leg will know just how he feels.”
Wombat wants Kevin to come and play. Kevin wants his tree.
The Koala Who Could is a funny, rhyming board book about a koala who likes things exactly the same, until change turns up uninvited.
Kevin clings to his gum tree, just as he always has, and new things are not for him. When Wombat shouts up for him to come down and play, Kevin has his answer ready: he is busy, and he can't. But change is on its way, like it or not.
Why children love it
- Wombat in his wide yellow hat, calling "HEY, KEVIN!" up into the branches.
- Kevin's polite excuses, like "I'm busy right now", beg for a worried koala voice.
- Hot orange outback pages, with gum leaves and a hammock strung between branches.
By Rachel Bright · Illustrated by Jim Field · English
