MondayMorning: Slept. Afternoon: Slept. Evening: Ate.Scratched. Night: Ate.
A typical day. Don’t be fooled. this wombat leads a very busy and demanding life.
She wrestles unknown creatures, runs her own digging business, and most difficult of all – trains her humans. She teaches them when she would like carrots, when she would like oats and when she would like both at the same time. But these humans are slow learners.
Find out how one wombat – between scratching, sleeping and eating – manages to fit the difficult job of training humans into her busy schedule.
PRAISE FOR DIARY OF A WOMBAT:

Great book but cover was damaged during posting
Dianne W –
Simple story about a wombat’s life written in a diary format from the wombat’s point of view. Wombats are stubborn beasties with minds of their own and this book perfectly captures the nature of a wombat which will do its own thing regardless of consequences. And it’s beautifully illustrated by Bruce Whatley. Superb.Highly recommended.

My 4yr old grandson lives in Sydney and I’m in qld and every Friday I face time him and read him a bedtime story. I found the wombat books have no story and boring to read
