Kati Helps Avoid Hunger
Kati is an athletic kangaroo who likes hopping around the woodland where she lives. When she discovers that her friend Keli the koala is running out of food she wants to help. But what can a kangaroo do to help avoid hunger?
Kati Helps Avoid Hunger is the fifth in a series of children’s picture books written in accordance with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.
With fantastic, colourful animal characters, the stories show children how helping each other and their environment can be lots of fun! The books are suitable for use at home or in the classroom and include questions for discussion on the topics raised – a useful supplement for teachers and parents.

Just as all the parks in the David Bellamy scheme are doing!”
