Summary

"Australian bushfires roar above Wombat's home. He is fortunate that his burrow is deep below ground and he is safe. He snuggles under his crazy quilt and drinks his tea. Soon his frightened friend Wallaby shows up at his door. 'Oh Wombat! I c-c-can't reach my home! M-m-may I stay with you awhile?' Wombat pauses only for a tick of the clock, and says, 'Come in!' Then, one by one, five uniquely Australian animals - the Wallaby, a Kookaburra, a Platypus, a Koala, and a Sugar Glider - seek refuge from the fires, and Wombat welcomes them all. When you have the heart of a wombat, there's always room for one more!"--, Publisher's webpage
