The enormously popular 'Kangaroo Creek Gang' (KCG) were created in 1981 through a set of reading books featuring a group of Australian bush animals, rather than the traditional foreign animal characters that had previously dominated the marketplace. Since then over 40 titles have been published with some one million copies sold around Australia. The website is a vehicle for promotion and communication.
