Albert and Pickles a lovable yet unlikely pair of besties return in the second instalment of Maddie Frost's early reader graphic novel series, Wombats!; perfect for fans who laughed out loud readingBaloney and Friends,Narwhal and Jelly, andCookie and Broccoli!
Pickles decides it's time to make good on an IOU that Albert forgot he gave him four years ago and requests that they take a trip to Wizard's Wharf! Albert begrudgingly agrees to accompany his best friend, but amusement parks aren't really his thing. Pickles is determined to make Albert feel the magic around him, but even after exploring all the rides, games, mazes, and prizes that Wizard's Wharf has to offer, Albert still isn't as wowed by this environment as his friend is.
Albert doesn't want his practicality to ruin his friend's IOU day, so they continue exploring the park and run into their friend and neighbour, Platters, who's working as a ride mechanic. Platters offers to take them on a tour of a top secret ride that's still under construction, but when the ride has a slight malfunction and the three of them are separated, Albert and Pickles will have to rely on how well they know each other, and maybe even a little magic, to help them find their way out.
