    About this audiobook

    Little Tommy the koala bear is sad and lonely in his gumtree in the country. The doctor recommends a trip to the city to brighten him up. While Tommy is in the city, he tries lots of different activities — but those funny Zookie creatures seem to follow him everywhere!


    This short story was written by Dorothy Wall, the New-Zealand born Australian author who created that famous koala character, 'Blinky Bill'.

    Dorothy Wall

    Dorothy Wall (1894-1942) was born in New Zealand, but came to Australia at the age of 20 and firmly established herself as the creator of Blinky Bill, one of Australia’s most enduring and popular icons. Her charming stories about the cheeky little koala have become classics and made a significant contribution to Australian children’s literature.
