A brand new Australian picture book about a little kookaburra who couldn't do what kookaburra's are supposed to do - laugh Fitting in is often difficult for children just as it is for Bridget. She overcomes this by laughing at herself even though she gets a bump on the head in the process. Beautiful watercolour illustrations.

Everyone knows that what koalas do best is sleep but young Clive cant help feeling different. He hardly ever wants to sleep Hes itchy and twitchy and sleeping on branches is a dangerous game when you just cant stop moving Maybe he was mixed up at birth and is really a monkey Maybe hes an elephant Or something much much bigger . . . One day somewhere between sleep and wild imagination Clive wonders what adventures he might have if only he were a different kind of animal . . . and soon discovers that being himself is not so bad after all
