Luimme tänään omaksi ostetun Ihan itse， sanoi susi ja sen takakannessa mainostettiin saman tekijäkaksikon muita kirjoja。 Huomasin， että meillähän on juuri lainattuna kirjastosta toinen niistä， Kyllä， sanoi koala。 Susikirjassa ihastutti valtavasti kuvituksen maalauksellisuus， joten odotukset koalalle （tai tamperelaisittain paremminkin kualakarhulle） olivat kovat。 Tämä ei kuitenkaan säväyttänyt， vaan jäi peruskuvakirjan ihan-jees-perus-hyvälle tasolle。

I adore Rachel Bright’s writing and this is no exception！ Like all of her other books， it is a fantastic addition to a classroom and will support children emotionally so well。

Kevin the koala is content holding on to a tree and keeping things the same until the woodpecker pecks down his tree and he is forced to let go。 By doing so， he comes to realises how good change can be and promotes a 'can do' attitude。 Lovely illustrations which match the story beautifully。 Overall， a great book which could support children with letting go themselves， anxieties around trying something new and group discussions around others feelings and developing empathy。 Kevin the koala is content holding on to a tree and keeping things the same until the woodpecker pecks down his tree and he is forced to let go。 By doing so， he comes to realises how good change can be and promotes a 'can do' attitude。 Lovely illustrations which match the story beautifully。 Overall， a great book which could support children with letting go themselves， anxieties around trying something new and group discussions around others feelings and developing empathy。 。。。more

A cute little picture book about Kevin the Koala who lacks a little bit of confidence and self esteem。 An ok message but quite boring。 Definitely better ways to get across the message: leave your comfort zone and try something new。 I did， however， like that it was a rhyming book。 Lots of rhythm so could capture children's attention and interest。 A cute little picture book about Kevin the Koala who lacks a little bit of confidence and self esteem。 An ok message but quite boring。 Definitely better ways to get across the message: leave your comfort zone and try something new。 I did， however， like that it was a rhyming book。 Lots of rhythm so could capture children's attention and interest。 。。。more

Mais um fantástico livro que aborda um tema importante para os mais novos: mostrar que vale a pena arriscar e acreditar que se é capaz。 Os livros desta dupla são mágicos e carregados de importantes mensagens que contribuem e muito para o desenvolvimento infantil em diferentes aspectos， muito focado na sua inteligência emocional e na relação com o outro。 Mais um livro que entrou para os nossos preferidos da hora do conto。

The Koala Who Could is a sweet story of bravery and friendship。 Sometimes we don't know we can be brave until we have no choice。 This is a great way to introduce that concept to our children who are a bit more cautious。 On the other hand， it's a great way to offer patience and empathy to our children who struggle to understand others' hesitance。 The Koala Who Could is a sweet story of bravery and friendship。 Sometimes we don't know we can be brave until we have no choice。 This is a great way to introduce that concept to our children who are a bit more cautious。 On the other hand， it's a great way to offer patience and empathy to our children who struggle to understand others' hesitance。 。。。more

A lovely book with a positive message。 The book explores how change， having a 'can-do' attitude and trying something new can lead to amazing things。 Would be useful for PSHE lessons with EYFS/KS1。 A lovely book with a positive message。 The book explores how change， having a 'can-do' attitude and trying something new can lead to amazing things。 Would be useful for PSHE lessons with EYFS/KS1。 。。。more
