Everyone's favourite wombat is back! And this time, he's going on an adventure...

Little Wombat loves to explore, and today he's bored with his burrow and decides he wants a change of scenery! So he sets out to see what kind of homes his other friends live in. Koala, Frog and Mole invite him to live with them, but wombats can't climb trees or walk on lily pads or live under rocks with the ants. So the ants lead him parade-style to a "great big nest nearby", which is filled with eggs. Mrs Emu is not pleased. But none of them seem to be quite right for a little wombat, and it's only once he gets back to his own burrow that he realizes there really is nowhere like it. There's even room to have a sleepover with all of his friends.

About the Author
Charles Fuge (Charlie to his friends) was brought up in Bath where a fanatical interest in wildlife translated into the drawing of animals. He won the Macmillan Prize in 1988 for Bush Vark's First Day Out, which won the Mother Goose Award the following year. And a career in children's book illustration began. He has since illustrated a raft of picture books including Sometimes I Like to Curl Up in a Ball which was runner-up for the Kate Greenaway Medal 2001. Since then Charles has illustrated many books, a number of which he has also written. His Little Wombat series has garnered international recognition for its warm and humorous depiction of an iconic marsupial.
