In “Darling Saves A Koala Bear”, the Tingalings are on holiday and having a Tingtastic time! Whilst eating yummy ice cream sundaes and playing on the beach, a ghastly smell catches Smartling’s attention. With smoke billowing from the nearby forest, the Tingalings jump to action and use their super powers to stop the fire. In an act of kindness, Darling thinks of cuddly koala bears, trapped high up in the trees and not able to escape. Together the Tingalings come up with a clever plan to scoop up their cuddly friends and deliver them to safety. Bumbling, a shy and indecisive creature has a special talent: thinking about the big picture! Bumbling wonders what caused the fire and realizes that fumes from planes and cars are trapping the sun’s rays and heating the earth. So Bumbling proposes a fantastic solution to mini Earthlings: ride bikes more, go on fun hikes, and encourage Mum and Dad to share the car more. Earthling heroes respond in full. The forest fires vanish and trees recover. The koala bear thanks Darling with a big hug! Fun facts are provided on forests and koala bears, including a map of the world showing where our cuddly friends live. A must have for all inquisitive children! -- Mabel's Enterprise (Matt Henderson) * Darling Saves a Koala Bear *"

Author Information

Mabel Hewitt and Matt Henderson are the co-founders of Mabel's Enterprise and co-authors of The Tingalings. Mabel is 91 years old. No stranger to adversity, she suffered poverty and abuse as a child during World War II. She lost her husband and sole life partner at 56 and successfully battled cancer at 88. With the kindest heart, she is passionate about equal opportunities for all children. Mabel believes the key to tackling the world's most serious issues (e.g. climate change, poverty and social injustice) is to empower and inspire children to make the world a better place. Mabel has teamed up with Grandson Matt, devoted Dad of three, who has left corporate life behind to invest his time and money in this ambitious project. Mabel and Matt channel all profits from the sale of Tingalings products (currently books and organic clothes) into Mabel's Fund to finance inspiring extra-curricular activities for children attending schools located in areas of high child poverty. They guarantee customers at least £1.50 from all book sales will be channelled to Mabel's Fund, after applying retailer discount. Their first partner school, Washwood Heath Academy, is located in a Birmingham ward with 57% child poverty. -- Mabel's Enterprise (Matt Henderson) * Darling Saves a Koala Bear *
