From the talented author of the WORLD OF NORM series, this story introduces us to Dude, Bro, and their little brother Squirt, who are anything but boring. While koalas are often perceived as lazy creatures that sleep for 19 hours a day, these three siblings are ready to prove that they can be quite the thrill-seekers when the situation calls for it.
The story takes an unexpected turn when the koala brothers realize they have missed their transfer from the sanctuary to the zoo. Instead of lounging in the treetops, they must now embark on a quest to navigate their way across town. With their parents unaware of their absence, the stakes are high, and the adventure is on. The brothers' determination to reunite with their family leads them to steal a zoo buggy, setting the stage for a series of humorous and chaotic events.
As they journey through the city, the koalas encounter various challenges and surprises that test their resourcefulness and bond. Will they make it to the zoo before their parents find out? Koala Calamity is a heartwarming and funny tale that showcases the wild side of wildlife, reminding readers that sometimes the most unexpected adventures can lead to unforgettable memories.
