It floods very badly about once every twenty years in Queensland. Lots of koalas are effected by the floods.
It floods very badly about once every twenty years in Queensland. Lots of koalas are effected by the floods.You can see pictures of Alex during the 1996 floods. This web also has pictures of the rising water of the Brisbane river which flows past the back of Alex's house. The Wivenhoe dam (where Max lives) feeds into the Brisbane river.
This flood was the inspiration for Alex's story on Max and the big flood.
