Khloe Koala & The Bush Fire

Like many people, Aliyyah and her family share a love and curiosity for the charm of koalas. Their cute little faces, gentle movements and warm, furry bodies always brought joy and smiles. In 2019, they were extremely saddened and worried about these amazing animals as they watched the huge bushfires in Australia on their TV. Aliyyah noticed the confusion of her young boys as they tried to process what they saw with the changes to the land, forest and wildlife there. She thought that by writing this book, she could help all kids understand what was happening to Australia and its lovely koala creatures. This book was also written to show some of the good things people were doing to help rescue and rehabilitate the animals affected.Aliyyah has always been a creative being, forever dabbling in projects from art to custom cakes to writing essays. Khloe Koala and the Bushfire is an extension of her passion for literature tied into the wonderous world of children's books. Her diverse background stems from the islands, growing up in Trinidad and Tobago and now residing in Brampton, Ontario with her two boys and husband.
