Little Wombat is playing hide-and-seek
Little Wombat is playing hide-and-seek with Rabbit and Koala. He hasn’t found it very easy to hide so far, but now it’s his turn to seek! Little Wombat decides to count ten yellow flowers before he goes to find his friends. But he just can’t seem to find any to count. And before long poor Little Wombat is lost and confused …until his mum comes to find him! A warm and delightful follow-up to an award-winning story. This beautifully illustrated, well-crafted tale is clearly another sure-fire hit in the waiting!
Wombats are nocturnal, live in burrows and are closely related to the Koala. They are small, round and have good muscles so are often called “the bulldozers of the bush.”
Wombats live in coastal areas, grasslands or forest areas in New South Wales, eastern Victoria, north-east Tasmania and Flinders Island (a small island just north of Tasmania). They don’t live in the desert as they are herbivores.
Kangaroo Valley in New South Wales is another great place to see wombats in the wild, but like any wild animals, they’re not the most reliable when trying to spot them outside
