A kindhearted wombat offers refuge to a parade of animal friends during an Australian bushfire in a delightful new picture book from New York Times best-selling creators Carmen Agra Deedy and Brian Lies.
Australian bushfires roar above Wombat's home. He is fortunate that his burrow is deep below ground and he is safe. He snuggles under his crazy quilt and drinks his tea. Soon his frightened friend Wallaby shows up at his door. "Oh Wombat! I c-c-can't reach my home! M-m-may I stay with you awhile?"
Wombat pauses only for a tick of the clock, and says, "Come in!"
Then, one by one, five uniquely Australian animals - the Wallaby, a Kookaburra, a Platypus, a Koala, and a Sugar Glider - seek refuge from the fires, and Wombat welcomes them all. When you have the heart of a wombat, there's always room for one more!
Fellowship, empathy, and adorable Australian animals star in this delightfully heartwarming and funny story about help in the time of trouble from New York Times best-selling author Carmen Agra Deedy (14 Cows for America, The Library Dragon, The Rooster Who Would Not Stay Quiet) and Caldecott Honor-winning and New York Times best-selling illustrator Brian Lies (The Rough Patch, Bats at the Beach).
The book will delight children with Deedy's engaging story and Lies masterfully rendered animals. It is an ideal read-aloud for adults seeking a story with humor and heart. Generosity and kindness provide powerful SEL themes. Older readers will get a glimpse of the unique environmental challenges presented by the country's annual bushfire season.
