Book Synopsis

Wombats might be pretty weird, but they’re pretty awesome, too!



Trade Review
“[An] informative field guide that professes not to take itself too seriously . . . Adorable, cartoonish illustrations of all three kinds of wombat, a snake sidekick named Joey (just like a baby wombat), and speech-bubble dialogue lend a layer of humor and reinforce the concepts introduced by the text." — Booklist “Cushman combines clear, cartoonlike digital illustrations with a lucid and humorous narrative to introduce young readers to wombats. . . . The chatty text covers wombats’ herbivorous diet, their cube-shaped poop, the fact that their teeth never stop growing, and their burrow homes. Conversational balloons add information with a touch of humor . . . Appended with basic scientific facts, such as the size and weight of all three species; a glossary; and suggestions for further inquiry. . . . Entertaining and informative.” — Horn Book Magazine
