Does Your School PASS
the “Glad I’m Here” Test?
 
For many years a teacher,
I believe that education should be FUN.
Only then is learning optimal, and besides, why not?
 
There is an easy test as to whether schools are making life enjoyable
for those under compulsion. The answer just demands honesty.
 
Q. Are most children at your school truly glad
when it’s a school day?
 
( H’mmm . . ! . . )
 
And . . . er . . . What about the Teachers . . ?
 
For all your sakes,
do something really new,
genuinely challenging,
and great fun -

Beautiful-illustrated, Educational
Fun Verse
“In the inland, though wild cats and foxes abound,
We few long eared pouched mammals still may be found;
My close cousin’s lost: My own species will be
Unless you help us now !”
Very truly,
B. Bilby
Brucie the Bilby is a feisty, eloquent Champion of Native Mammal Rights.
To put their case to YOU-Mans ,
he translates verse from their native tongues into English.
They don’t mince their words, neither.
Ferals Beware !
Net-Surfin’ Natives are on the Warpath !
This is a very special little book.
It’s highly educational, so it deserves a look-in here.
12 Native Animals each write a verse
about its habits and survival problems.
Here is an example by one of the best-known of all:
Koala
(phascolarctos cinereus)
“Koala” means “No-Drink”-
Please don’t call us “Bear” !
We’re so much more special, it just isn’t fair !
With two “thumbs” per ‘hand’, we can’t run well, you see,
So we climb, eat and sleep up a Eucalypt tree !
