Description

While a bushfire is raging above, Wombat stays safe in his cozy burrow. What might he do when trouble - in the form of an unexpected guest - comes knocking at his door One by one, five uniquely Australian animals - Wallaby, Kookaburra, Platypus, Koala, and Sugar Glider - appear. Wombat welcomes them all, with growing anxiety. Before long, Wombat's peaceful burrow becomes a pandemonium of messy and unruly guests who take his favourite chair and wear his slippers.

What, oh what, is a big-hearted Wombat to do
