Finished My Book..

I have finished my book, i am really pleased and happy with it. I will be giving it to my neighbour's printing company to bind, laminate the cover and make 2 copies today. He said he should be able to finish printing it in two days. Which gives me enough time to hand it in on the first week.

There once lived four koalas in a tree. One mother, one father and two children.They all lived in their own gum tree in the forest. They were all very happy as they sleep all day and ate gum leaves, until....

Page 2:

One day while all the koalas were sleeping a group of people came to chop down all the trees. One of the baby koalas tried waking up their mother and father “ Wake up, wake up!” yelled the baby koala, she pushed and shoved the rest of her family to wake them up.

But it was to late. They started to chop the tree down, finally the rest of the family woke up and they all quickly climbed down from branch to branch off the tree and reached the ground just in time. “ Why are they chopping down our home?” asked the mother.

Page 4:

All the koalas were sitting on the ground with no home and no place to go. That same afternoon two hikers came hiking through the forest and saw the koalas sitting on the ground. “ What happened?” asked one of the hikers.

Page 5:

“ I don’t know, should we call the Australian Koala Foundation?” asked the other hiker. Once they thought about what they should do, one of the hikers go on the phone to the Australian koala foundation. During this time the other hiker stood near the koalas to make sure they didn’t go anywhere.

“ Hello, is this the Australian Koala Foundation? Hi my name is Anna and I went hiking in the forest this morning with my brother and we found a family of four koalas sitting on the ground.” she said into the phone.

“ Thank you, for calling Anna if you could please just stay where you are and we will send some of our workers to the site.” replied one of the members of the Australian Koala Foundation into the phone.

Page 7:

The hikers stayed with the koalas and after a while two members of the Australian Koala Foundation drove into the forest with a van and collected the koalas. The Australian Koala Foundation took the koalas back to their offices and took good care of the koalas.

But as much as the Australian Koala Foundation can do they still need the communities help. So people around Australia fostered the family of koalas and also gave a donations to the Australian Koala Foundation.
