Publisher's Description of Koala (Young Zoologist)
Head down under to study koalas in this beautiful nonfiction
field guide for kids.
You might know that baby koalas spend time in their mother’s
pouches, but there’s so much more to learn about these Australian marsupials!
Turn the pages to discover why they spend 15 hours a day asleep, and how
scientists use drones to monitor koala populations. Filled with simple science
and plenty of animal facts, this book also explains why koalas love to munch
eucalyptus leaves, and why they are most certainly not bears! It also looks at
the conservation challenges these iconic animals face due to climate change and
forest fires.
Written by Professor Chris Daniels and featuring stunning
illustrations by Marianne Lock, Koala (Young Zoologist) is part of an exciting
series of animal books from Neon Squid aiming to inspire the next generation of
