BUYING ADVISORY: EL - ESSENTIAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH
Wombat is busy digging one of its several burrows under the forest of Australia, while other animals are also going about their days. When a wildfire sweeps through the forest, instead of driving the others away, wombat allows them to share its burrow, safe from the fires raging above.
A great book to talk about what is true about the behavior of wombats vs the viral gossip that spread during the recent Australia bush fires. I love seeing a human helper holding a wombat – really the only way to get the perspective on their sheer size! Any elementary teacher could pull this out for an instant.
