　The reason that I choose this book is that I was attracted by Micky, so I think name is very important. The name of book presents the first sight, and it will decide whether the book is impressive or not. The beginning is that Micky and Goofy went to zoo to see koalas, but they found something wrong. I think this kind of theme is very close to children because children love animals and zoos. Therefore, they will be more interested in this book. Micky and Goofy go to Australia, find Dingo Dan, and help him to solve the problem. Finally, they go back, and children can enjoy seeing koalas. They don't have to worry that kolas have food shortage, and they cannot see koalas. Therefore, children can learn two things according this book. First, problem has to be solved, and do not avoid it. Second, helping others sometimes is a good thing, so children should not refuse to help others when they have ability. I think these two things are both important to children. All of the pictures in the book are colorful and exquisite, so I think children will like it. In the end of book, the author put some interesting pictures and essays to improve children's knowledge, and I think it is very helpful to children while they are learning language or knowledge. When children read the book which they are interested in, they won't be tired. What's more, they want more! Therefore, I think other authors can add some interesting information in the end of book, so children can learn more after read a book.
