Doctor Kookaburra and the first line workers at Gum Tree Hospital are helping to take care of the sick animals. But Doctor Kookaburra also needs to come up with a cure and stop the spread quickly.

Wilbert the Wombat and his friends in the animal town of Fig Tree are told to spend more time at home and practice social distancing when out and about.

And this is how this picture book's heartwarming story of self-care and compassion begins. Wilbert must learn how to take care of himself so that he and his friends can be healthier and not spread the flu any further.
