Imagine living in Australia with its hot climate, beautiful forests, high mountains, swamps, and deserts. Koala spends his days with his mother in the eucalyptus tree eating, sleeping, and watching the world below. What strange creatures he sees around him! He spots snakes that slither and sometimes climb his tree, brightly coloured parrots that squawk and share his branch, plus kangaroos, wallabies, dingoes, wombats, and flightless emus that race across the land. He even glimpses platypuses, echidnas, flying foxes, crocodiles, and desert-roaming camels.
