Dingoes at Dinnertime
Synopsis

Remember that Jack and Annie must find four gifts to save a dog from a spell. They must get the fourth gift from a kangaroo. This lets Jack know that they are heading to Australia this time. In the wild, they meet many animals that are unique to Australia like emus, koala bears and kookaburras. Annie even plays with a mother and a baby kangaroo.

However, the wildfire is burning close to them. Annie is running back into the woods to save a koala bear instead of away from the fire! Will they be able to escape the raging fire and get the gift they need from a kangaroo?
