Christmas Wombat

32 pp. | Clarion | October, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-0-547-86872-1 $16.99
(2) PS Illustrated by Bruce Whatley. Sedentary Wombat embarks on an eventful Christmas Eve journey, transforming from homebody to world traveler. Wombat repeatedly stumbles across its favorite snack (carrots), stares down some reindeer, and curls up for naps on the back of Santa's sleigh. Succinct sentences and episodic pacing allow the adventures to speak for themselves. With their spare backgrounds, the illustrations play up Wombat's personality.
