Wombat loves digging deep holes and thinking deep thoughts, but nobody thinks much of that until danger threatens the bush and the small wombat comes up with a great big idea... One day Wombat digs the deepest hole he's ever dug and crawls into the cool darkness to think. But when he climbs out again, he can't see his mother anywhere. He is all alone. As he wanders through the great outback looking for her, Wombat meets all kinds of wonderful creatures - Kookaburra, Wallaby, Possum, Emu, Boy and Koala. None of them think very much of him, though. But when a fire sweeps through the bush, it is Wombat's skills which save the day, and afterwards everyone races off to find his mum and bring her back to him. AGES 4-8

That's wee Wombat's motto, and he's unshakable in it. No matter how those he meets along the way ridicule him, he holds fast to his goals, and to who he is. That self-confidence and quiet determination end up being his own saving grace -- and that of the others -- gaining the quiet little guy everyone's respect in the end.
A wonderful lesson for all children to learn early. The book is written in an easy-to-read-aloud style, almost sing-song in its rhythm. The illustrations will leave you breathless in their brilliant use of light and color.
