Publisher's Synopsis
Kati is an athletic kangaroo who likes hopping around the woodland where she lives. When she discovers that her friend Keli the koala is running out of food she wants to help. But what can a kangaroo do to help avoid hunger?
Kati Helps Avoid Hunger is the fifth in a series of children's picture books written in accordance with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals. With fantastic, colourful animal characters, the stories show children how helping each other and their environment can be lots of fun! The books are suitable for use at home or in the classroom and include questions for discussion on the topics raised - a useful supplement for teachers and parents."The tragedy unfolding for Australia's wildlife is a global story. So it lightens our hearts and strengthens our resolve to see stories for young children that include wonderful and caring Kangaroos like Kati helping other animals, in this case, a very hungry Keli the Koala. We can learn a very great deal from wild animals and here are two great icons of Australian nature to teach us all".
Peter Hylands, President of the Australian Wildlife Protection Council "Truthful and inspiring, this story teaches young readers the importance of protecting the environment. Memorable characters, Kati the kangaroo and Keli the koala, remind us all to respect each other's differences and that in the end, it is teamwork and kindness that will save the planet."
Emma Girvan, PR and Communications, The Australian Koala Foundation
