The koala in the tree

The words

  • koala
  • træ
  • sover
  • nat
  • blade
  • mor

The text

Tip for the adult

Read it twice if you can: the first time to get the words right and the second time to read it as a whole.

A koala is asleep in a tree during the day. At night, a baby koala sits with its mother.

En koala bor i et træ.

Koalaen sover hele dagen.

Nu er det nat.

Koalaen er vågen.

Den spiser blade.

Mm! Bladene er gode.

En lille koala er hos sin mor.

Den holder godt fast.

Den er sød.
