As the sun sets over an Australian grassland, a hungry wombat leaves its burrow to spend the cool night looking for plants to eat. When morning comes, the wombat will waddle back to its home and spend the hot daytime hours sleeping in its protected, underground bedroom. In Wombat’s Burrow, kids will explore the world of these burrowing marsupials through clear text and large, full-color photos. Age-appropriate activities, such as describing a wombat to a friend, and critical-thinking questions give readers a chance to gain insights beyond the facts and figures. Fun information, such as the fact that the tunnels in the wombat’s burrow can be wide enough for a person to crawl through, is sure to delight young readers.

One of Australia’s most engaging marsupials, the wombat is also one of the most disparaged and least understood. Often depicted as slow, muddle-headed and clumsy, it can, in fact, outpace a human or a dog over a short distance. Wombats are quick to learn and superbly adapted to their burrowing way of life. This book gives a full account of how wombats live and the many hazards they face. Dealing mainly with the bare-nosed wombat, Vombatus ursinus, it also includes information on the southern hairy-nosed wombat, Lasiorhinus latifrons, as well as the northern hairy-nosed wombat, Lasiorhinus krefftii, which is one of the world’s most endangered animals. The book also gives practical advice on rearing orphan wombats. Completely revised, this new edition has over 100 illustrations, including 23 colour plates and drawings by Peter Schouten.

Learn all about the Australian “bulldozer of the bush” in a fascinating introduction to the wombat. Wombats may look soft and cuddly, but they are determined and tough, with sharp teeth that never stop growing, limbs that they use to shovel dirt like bulldozers, and bony bottoms they use to defend their burrows. They can live for years without drinking water, getting all of their moisture from the plants they eat—and they deposit their cube-shaped poop on rocks or stumps as a warning to other wombats. Follow one of these powerful marsupials through a suspenseful day in Christopher Cheng’s engaging narration, paired with endearing illustrations by Liz Duthie and interspersed with intriguing facts. An endnote provides additional information about wombats for readers curious to learn more.
