A beautiful collector's edition celebrating 35 years of this touching story about mothers' enduring love. A timeless Australian classic from the beloved and bestselling author of Where is the Green Sheep? and Possum Magic.

'Mem Fox's books are like a warm blanket; they have a way of making the world seem a little cosier.' The Age

A gorgeous special edition celebrating 35 years of this Australian classic by the bestselling and much-loved author of Where is the Green Sheep? and Possum Magic.

There was once a baby koala, so soft and round that all who saw her loved her. Her name was Koala Lou.

Koala Lou is the first born in a large family. She feels sad because her mother seems too busy to pay her any attention. Perhaps if she wins the tree-climbing at the Bush Olympics her mother might notice her again . . .

'A first-rate choice for bedtime, story hour, or reading aloud.' The Horn Book

'Another winner from one of Australia's favorite authors.' Kirkus Reviews

All illustrator royalties from this special edition will be donated to the Indigenous Literacy Foundation to help raise literacy levels and opportunities for Indigenous children living in remote and isolated areas.
