SynopsisWombats are cuddly-looking, slow-moving Australian animals. Their favorite activities are eating, sleeping, and digging holes. Here, in the words of one unusually articulate wombat, is the tongue-in-cheek account of a busy week; eating, sleeping, digging holes . . . and training its new neighbors, a family of humans, to produce treats on demand. This entertaining book, with its brief, humorous text and hilarious illustrations, will endear the wombat to young children, who may recognize in the determined furry creature some qualities that they share.

  • Charming book!

    Simply written, easy to read, adorable drawings, and a charming story about a wombats daily life, and how he trains humans who move in his neighborhood to be good pets. Wonderful for young children who are, however, old enough to understand the humor of the situation.
