Diary of a Wombat Summary

Diary of a Wombat by Jackie French

Take a trip with a wombat, and discover the ins and outs of her day in this fantastic toddler friendly board format of the modern classic Australian picture book. There are holes to be dug and territory to be defended - and don't forget all the eating and sleeping that needs to be squeezed in too!

A wombat's work is never done...

She sleeps.
She eats.
She scratches.
She is training humans to become better pets.
She is Mothball, a wombat with attitude.

Award-winning author Jackie French's love of wombats comes alive in this cheeky observation of Mothball's life, while Bruce Whatley's captivating illustrations of Mothball's antics show just how endearing wombats are to humans.

Diary of a Wombat Reviews

'French and Whatley have conjured an affectionate, believable wombat self-portrait.' New York Times Book Review

'Bruce Whatley's illustrations bring the story to life in a way that is both endearing and amusing. It's easy to see why this book has won several awards in Jackie French's native Australia. It deserves to be a huge hit here too, as it feels really fresh and original.' Publishing News
