Everyone knows that what koalas do best is sleep, but young Clive can’t help feeling different. He hardly ever wants to sleep! He’s itchy and twitchy, and sleeping on branches is a dangerous game when you just can’t stop moving! Maybe he was mixed up at birth and is really a monkey! Maybe he's an elephant? Or something much, much bigger . . . One day, somewhere between sleep and wild imagination, Clive wonders what adventures he might have if only he were a different kind of animal . . . and soon discovers that being himself is not so bad after all!

The clues to Kate's killer implicate other animal keepers at Gunn Zoo, including Outback Bill, marsupial keeper and Kate's Aussie ex-boyfriend; and Robin Chase, the big cat keeper who's got it in for Teddy. Also displaying suspicious behavior are several "liveaboarders" at the harbor; Speaks-To-Souls, a shady "animal psychic;" and even Caro, Teddy's much-married, ex-beauty queen mother.

To pay for the repairs, Teddy agrees to appear on a weekly live television broadcast featuring misbehaving animals that range from a cuddly koala to a panicky wallaby - and all hell breaks loose in the TV studio. All the while, the killer is narrowing in on Teddy....
