The values in 'Kimberley the Koala'
Kimberley is a story about timidity. It shows how difficult it sometimes is to stand on your own two feet, to think and act for yourself.
Most young children reach a point where they want to branch out on their own. Many have an initial fear of leaving the safety of home and 'mummy', of starting school or being in the care of other family members, but this soon vanishes as the excitement takes over. But for some, the need to cling safely to the familiar becomes a real obstacle to developing.
This story will help such children understand the need to adventure further as they grow up.
KIMBERLEY
-A tale of independence-
For nearly two months Kimberley had ridden on her mother's back while she became used to life in the eucalyptus trees. But now it is time for her to spend more time climbing among the branches on her own. However, Kimberley is reluctant to do so. She was comfortable in her mother's pouch, she is comfortable riding on her mother's back and she enjoys being carried about.
Then one day a bush fire starts and it moves slowly towards the eucalyptus patch. Kimberley's mother cannot escape with her heavy daughter on her back. Kimberley must make it on her own. But she is too fat and is soon out of breath.
As the smoke starts to billow round them, Kimberley is forced to act.
