Little Wombat spends a day doing favorite things. He especially enjoys walking around and around, and doing a pigeon step till he falls down. But when the day ends and the sun starts to fall... he goes back home to Mama and curls into a ball.

Cute illustrations, sweet story and an edge because it's a wombat, not just a bunny or something. The kids have all enjoyed this book. ( )

Life is a lot of fun for Wombat. He likes to enjoy himself. But best of all he likes to curl up in a ball.

Sweet and wonderful, but fairly unoriginal... until one realizes that it's a Wombat!! Not an overdone bunny, bear cub, or kitten, but a wombat! And other antipodal critters... ;)

edit - what a neat coincidence... immediately after reading this I pick up [b:I Can Fly|42278|I Can Fly (Little Golden Book)|Ruth Krauss|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1388443074s/42278.jpg|41770] which is pretty much the same story, just northern hemisphere and from 1951... ( )

40 months - cute ( )
