A picturebook retelling of the story of one episode from the brand-new TV series, and illustrated with photos from the TV. The Wombles are fondly remembered and have now been given a new lease of life with new adventures, new costumes, new characters, new technology to aid their mission to clear up litter - and with all the charm and appeal of the original TV series!

The young Wombles love to hear Uncle Bulgaria's stories, especially those that feature his adventures with Livingstone Womble - the Great Explorer Womble.

The first new TV series has already achieved huge publicity and this will be repeated when the second new series is shown on ITV from January-March 99. An extensive range of merchandise (toys and games, food, clothing - children's and adult, stationery, etc) has already been launched and more will be added throughout 1999.
