A funny rhyming story about dealing with change and
overcoming worries, from the bestselling creators of The
Lion Inside.
In a wonderful place, at the breaking of dawn, where the breezes were soft
and the sunshine was warm, a place where the creatures ran wild and played free
... A Koala called Kevin clung to a tree.
Meet Kevin. A koala who likes to keep things the same. Exactly the same. But
sometimes change comes along whether we like it or not... And, as Kevin
discovers, if you step outside your comfort zone and try new things, you might
just surprise yourself!
