Subject: Another Balson

Hi Alex , my name is Annie Balson. I live in Canada. I am seven years old and in September I am starting grade two. Your page was really cool! In March I turn eight years old.

I have a brother named Alexander Balson, he is two years old. This is the first time I have used the Net and I think it is really cool that I can talk to someone in Australia because it's so far away.

My dad says that Balson is an uncommon last name and that a long time ago, we had relatives from England who moved to Australia. I wonder if you're a long lost cousin?

Hello Alex,

I really liked your stories!!

I'm going to tell my brother about them. He lives in England with his wife now, but I think his kids (3 yrs & 6 yrs) are homesick for Australia. I bet they'll like Koala Trouble too!

I don't live in Australia now either :(

I'm working for an Internet provider in Japan. I want to tell all my Japanese friends about Koala Trouble! So please tell me when the Japanese Koala Trouble is ready. I can help you spread your stories in Japan! In fact I'll ask my boss if we can make a link to K.T. from some of our home pages.

I'll bookmark your page - but please email me.

Bye!
Lucy

Dear Alex,

I liked your stories and pictures. My name is Phoebe and I am in Year 1 at St. Josephs Convent School in Wee Waa NSW. I live on a wheat and cattle property called "Erroldoon" with my Mother and Father and brothers and sister. Their names are John, Angus and Bridget. I really like to draw too and every day when I get home from school I draw for ages and ages.

How is Max? We don't see koalas around here but we have lots of roos and emus and snakes in summer. We have feral pigs too and we chase them sometimes but we don't catch them very often on foot, they are too fast!

Bye for now,
Phoebe Hamilton.

Hello,

My daughter Alana is three and she has really enjoyed helping Max with his adventures. We live in the United States and last April had the good forture to visit your beautiful country. Maybe you could do a story on meeting a family of American tourist. It would be fun reading about a koala showing a Mom, Dad, brother, and little sister around. Thank you for such a fun place to visit with my three-year old.

Cindy and Alana

Dear Alex,

You did very good making these stories. I'm ten years old and I loved them and I love Koalas. They're my favorite animal.

I was just chatting with somebody from Australia and they said the Koala's were very cute.

Thank you so much for making this on the internet.
