The Koala Who Could

(4) PS Illustrated by Jim Field. Set-in-his-ways koala Kevin stays in his tree. Despite the coaxings of a wombat, kangaroos, and dingoes, Kevin remains on his perch--until a woodpecker forces the issue by toppling the tree. Large cartoony illustrations show an endearing collection of outback pals. The rhyming text, though message-y ("life can be GREAT / when you try something NEW!"), is kid-friendly and relatable.
