What was the name of that koala cartoon?

This was a cartoon movie in the late 1980s or early 1990s. It must have aired on the Family Channel in Canada, but I think it was Australian originally, or at least set in Australia. The main character was a human girl, and I think she had a sick koala, and she had to earn money to get him medicine? At one point, she's performing and sings a song that goes "And here's a tip/go take a trip..." and then she's interrupted by someone who gives her bad news and she says "Oh no!" and runs off.

Does anyone else remember this cartoon movie?

What was the name of that magazine article?

I have a strong memory of reading a copy of Reader's Digest that had a story about a sick child. It might have been written by the child's mother (or possibly father). I think it was a boy, and he had trouble breathing (he might have had cystic fibrosis?). It was a long story (more than a page or two), and the child died. This would have probably been in the early-mid nineties, but it's possible it was reprinted from an earlier time.

What Was the Name of That Computer Game?

I'm trying to remember this computer game that I played.

First of all, I think it's a computer game. It's possible it was a Nintendo game, but we never had very many NES games, so I think it was a computer game. We had an Apple IIgs. It was likely the 80s, possibly early 90s.

I have no idea what the point of the game was. All I remember is choosing furniture. Like...a lamp. And then we would decorate a house? Possibly a grandmother's house? I don't know if there was more to the game than interior design. This memory was dormant in my brain for decades until I rode the bus by a furniture store and had a sudden flash of remembrance.

I just remember a lot of furniture.

What Was the Name of that Book? Part Three

This book is probably easily findable, if I had a bit more information (as most of my questions are, I guess.)

I didn't read this whole book. I picked it up at a booksale and thumbed through it. I didn't buy it, but I'd read enough of it to be curious about it. It was a paperback, possibly had a red cover. I think it was geared to adults, possibly a teen title but more likely adult. I think the parents were splitting up and their teenage daughter was pregnant, but she was overweight and had been hiding it, I think even from the baby's father, who might have been a friend of hers? The teen's voice was sarcastic and I think she was a first-person narrator, at least for part of the book.

What Was The Name of that TV Episode?

I think this was an episode of a TV mystery show. I want to say Matlock, I'm pretty sure it wasn't Murder She Wrote, but it could have been Perry Mason (90s edition), or Diagnosis Murder, or something like that. There were twins, adult female twins, but a fingerprint examination revealed that the twins were actually just one person pretending to be two. I think they used Scotch tape to lift the fingerprints? And there was something to do with an elevator. This was probably sometime during the 90s.

What Was the Name of That Book? Part 2

Some days I feel like this one is on the tip of my tongue; some days I feel like I'll never remember what it's called.

This is another book I read as a child. I know that I read it at my friend's cottage, so I want to say that it was between 1991 and 1997 when I read it, but it could easily have been published before that. It was a paperback, possibly pocketbook sized. There was likely a character, maybe a main character, who was overweight. I think she wore a school uniform. The most memorable thing about the book was that they called the bathroom a lavatory.

What Was the Name of That Frozen Treat?

This time, I'm pretty clear on the memory, I just haven't found anyone who shares it.

It's a Mr. Freeze-like treat, but it's more milky than sugary. I remember it being called a Creamie (Creamy?), like a Freezie. It came in a long plastic tube, and it was frozen. I remember a butterscotch flavour, a light brown. There might have been a chocolate one, too. I would have been eating it in the late 1980s, early 1990s.

What Was the Name of That Rap?

I have no idea about this one.

Every now and then I get a little song stuck in my head. It sounds something like this:
Do the mad walkin'
Do the mad talkin'
Be-bop-be-bad
Backslide spit.

It's probably from something really embarrassing, but I still have to know.

What Was the Name of that Book?

Can anyone help me remember the name of a book?

It was about a girl. A new Russian neighbour moved in across the street (I think, possibly next door). I think it was set in the late 80s/early 90s (possibly written around that time, too) because it talked about the fall of the Soviet Union. It used words like glasnost. The neighbour gave the girl a gold pin (possibly from the Moscow Olympics?) and the main character would check the stock market to find out the price of gold. All of this happened fairly early on. I don't remember the rest of the book at all, but the main character probably learned a lesson or two about life. I think it was a paperback and I probably got it from a book order or something like that.
