AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Kippy the little koala leaves the safety of his mother's back to find who or what made a series of strange sounds he heard. He meets other animals - a wallaby, a puppy, an emu, a kangaroo, a kookaburra - all of whom make different noises, but he is most pleased to hear the sound of his mother calling him home.
