Mama Koala carries her sleeping youngest while tending to four joeys and juggling play, cleaning, and family squabbles. The koala family gives this picture book a child-friendly way to explore the arrival of a new baby and the extra work it brings. Siblings have a part in caring for the littlest member, while Mama’s packed day raises a simple question about making room for her own needs alongside everyone else’s. Humor frames the everyday demands of family life, with the story also making space for the value of pausing to enjoy time together.

Book overview

Laugh along with the messiness and magic of motherhood in this adorable story from TikTok's favorite nap-trapped mama, Emily Vondy.

Mama Koala has her hands full with four spunky joeys. So when the littlest koala falls asleep, she scoops him onto her back and continues the day. But keeping the baby asleep while playing, cleaning, peacekeeping, and all the other things on a busy mama's list starts to feel impossible. Can she take care of everyone--including herself?

This silly and heartwarming picture book . . .

  • uses humor to show kids how hard parents work;
  • celebrates a family, including brothers and sisters, working together to take care of its littlest member;
  • honors the overwhelming experience of having a new baby in the family; and
  • encourages moms that sometimes the most important task is enjoying a special moment with your children.

Take a break for a koala cuddle with your own little joey as you treasure each other and celebrate the love and dedication that make a family.
