Koala is a beautiful grey koala who could climb the tallest trees. Koala was told to leave as she grew older by her mother. She didn’t want to leave, but she had to cause her mother is having another baby. Her mother went through fights alone.
Koala felt a storm coming and reached out for her mother but she wasn’t there.
When the stormy weather stopped, Koala found only one single gum leaf just sitting there. So, she went and spent two whole seasons looking for a home. Then when she came back to the tree where the storm happened at, she saw so many gum leaves, she was so happy, at last she found a home. Her mother came to visit to show her the new brother.
