The animals in the zoo misinterpret a zookeeper's comment about the wombat that is arriving and create rumors about its ferocity. Includes basic information about the wombat, an endangered marsupial native to Australia.
Reviews with the most likes.
“Today the wild wombat is coming—all the way from Australia! We must be very careful with him.”
And that's all it takes for the rumors to start flying. Soon all the animals at the zoo are speculating about the wild wombat and his dangers. Like a game of Gossip, the whisperings about the wombat grow more and more ominous.
The illustrations perfectly mirror the worries of the zoo animals with growing dire predictions about the wild wombat.
The ending is quite satisfying.
