The Tweeting Galah book is made up of four short stories for children:

"The Tale of the Tweeting Galah": Despite being told not to use his phone while flying, Gabbo finds the temptation too great. He learns the hard way that when you post something online, ANYONE can see it.

"The Sensational Saga of the Bumbling Bilby": Sure, it was funny when Balbina the Bilby fell over during her PE lesson ... but it is not so funny when her friends posted a video of it online and EVERYONE sees it.

"The Strange Story of the Singing Clownfish": Clancy the Clownfish has made a new online friend. But when she starts digging deeper she realises that her 'friend' may not be who they say they are ...

"Curious Case of the Overly Playful Platypus": Presley the Platypus loves playing on his new iPad. It stops becoming so fun though, when the iPad begins taking over Presley's life.

With its uniquely Australian characters, vibrant illustrations and quirky sense of humour, The Tweeting Galah is a collection of short stories that children around the world are reading and relating to.

"Thank you for this wonderful book and teaching resource. I have been reading the stories to my Year 3 class as part of our health program to reinforce healthy online behaviours. In particular, my class really connected with the story of the overly playful platypus. This story evoked a lot of discussion about too much screen time and, as a class, we have set a challenge to see if we can achieve 'screen free' days in the school holidays (me included!!) On a personal note, as a parent this book has helped me to encourage discussions with my fourteen and ten-year-old on cyber safety. I will definitely be recommending this book to parents and teachers as a fun and engaging too to encourage discussions and decisions on safe and healthy use of technological devices and online programs" - Kirsty, Primary School Teacher, Perth
