This book made me want to see the world

I received this book for my eighth birthday and without a doubt it was one of the best presents I ever received. The illustrations so colorful and inviting made me want to be in that balloon with Koa Koala and learn about different cultures. I wanted to eat the foods, see the money, the stamps..I wanted the entire experience. I learned Geography and an appreciation for things outside of the United States. I'm taking my first trip to Europe this week and I truly believe had I not gotten this book as a kid I would have probably been a content child but I believe this book set a fire within me to want to see the world.

Koa gave this kid a passport!

I was 6 years old when I received this book, and to this day I credit Koa and friends for instilling in me a great curiosity and appreciation for international travel, foreign languages, and cultures beyond my own. The illustrations are brilliantly colourful and tenderly rendered; these alone will invite the reader to sit down and follow the koala from country to country (or from cover to cover, as it were). Today I realize I have been inspired by this dear book for almost 30 years, both creatively and in my travels. Hope this one comes back in print someday soon.

Koa Koala's adventures

I received this splendid book as a Christmas gift, I guess I was about ten. Just to remember the artwork gives me the wanderlust! Sorry to see it's out of print for the time being.

This was the defining book of my childhood

I received "Around the World with Koa Koala" for my ninth birthday. I read this book from cover to cover about a million times. I credit this book with my desire to travel all around the world. I am now 30 years old. I want to thank the author for giving me my travelling jones.
