Reading around the world no. 6: Wombat goes Walkabout

Toby says: Wombat lives in Australia. He lives underground in a deep burrow. He loses his Mummy, and he meets some animals and a little boy. They make fun of him because he only digs and thinks. Then, there was a forest fire, and he dug and dug and dug. All the animals and people he saw, they all went into his little tunnel, and they were saved. Then he told all the animals that he had lost his Mummy, and they all split up and found her.

Mummy says: This was our first reading around the world book that Toby read to me (with the others, he'd read the odd page, but not the whole book). The text is just repetitive enough to not be daunting, and you meet lots of creatures from Australia - kookaburra, wallaby, koala, and emu, for example. The book was a lot bigger than we expected, it's a proper big picture book, and a lovely addition to Toby's book shelf.
