The Blue Quandong in the Deep, Dark Forest: BANYULA TALES - caring for friends

The young Banyula animals finally believe Serena Sugar Glider's adventure stories when she takes them to see the Blue Quandong.

Kyle Koala sleeps through the whole thing and Callan the Chameleon stays home to count his feathers.

Despite many misgivings Ben Bowerbird joins in. Blue Roo makes everyone tired by leaping and bouncing in their way.

Kate Kookaburra gives a running commentary on the journey and only keeps quiet when she is mimicked by a lyre bird in the bush.

Wesley Wombat walks further than ever before, for the mysterious fruit of the blue quandong tree beyond the dense scrub in the deep forest.

Their journey is interrupted by a strange, angry creature with huge thumping feet. A creature they never want to see again!

Animals have unique personalities and experience fear, anxiety and stress. The Banyula Tales are about a group of Australian animals living in the Australian bush. There's Callan Chameleon who doesn't like to go far from home, Ben Bowerbird is very careful and collects blue objects to decorate his bower. Kyle Koala likes to sleep a lot. Katie Kookaburra is loud and bossy. Serena Sugar Glider is thoughtful and takes care of the others. Blue Roo has lots of energy and acts before he thinks. Freya Frill-Neck Lizard is anxious and worries about lots of things. Fleur Possum is shy and kind. Emily Echidna is confident and friendly. Wesley Wombat likes to join in but he can't keep up with the faster animals. The Bilby Twins live in the Dark Forest, which is where you'll find Cassowary and Lyre Bird. There are many other animals: Tyson Turtle, Tazza the Tasmanian devil, Tessa Thorny-Devil, Fraser Frog, Gang-Gang Galah and Peter Platypus. There's Grandpa Koala, Doc Possum and Hawk.
