Here come Simon.

G'day, my name is Simon.

I'm an Australian green tree frog.

I'm also a fact-finding frog.

I love finding out facts about things and sharing them with you on our adventures and because you're here

we can go on an adventure right now and to get going we'll take in one really big slow

breath together and then when we breathe out we'll be off on our adventure okay deep

breath in hold it and breathe out here we go go oh wow this is going to be a tremendous adventure for sure because we are right in the

middle of another fantastic forest if you listen closely you'll be able to hear your first clue about where in the world we are.

Aha! Those are Coker burrows, no worries!

And that excellent music makes it easy peasy lemon squeezy for you to work out which country we're in.

Oh, we're definitely in an Australian forest in Queensland.

But it's not a rainforest like the one I live in.

The trees that grow here first appeared about 50 million years ago.

Just after the dinosaurs disappeared.

And how's this for freaky?

Way back then, Australia, Antarctica and South America were still joined up, before they all broke apart like a big jigsaw puzzle.
