As first introduced in Diary of a Wombat, this mostly sedentary wombat arouses during the Christmas holidays to the smell of carrots.  In his typical low-key humor, he continually fights “strange creatures” (reindeer) for his favorite food (carrots).  Finding a good place to nap (Santa’s sleigh), he soon discovers these strange creatures are terrific at finding carrots all over the world!  Bruce Whatley’s humorous illustrations show this irresistibly charming wombat’s confrontations in a variety of situations.  This delightful book will appeal to people of all ages.
