Description:
In this charming instalment of Ruth Park’s beloved Muddle-Headed Wombat series, our famously forgetful marsupial gets up to even more mischief. With beautiful illustrations by Noela Young, The Muddle-Headed Wombat Is Very Bad follows Wombat as he learns (the hard way) that being "bad" isn’t quite as fun as he thought. Full of gentle humour and whimsical charm, it’s a timeless story that continues to delight generations of young readers.
Why You’ll Love It:
A must-have for collectors of Australian children’s classics and fans of Ruth Park’s delightful storytelling. Noela Young’s illustrations perfectly capture the innocence and hilarity of Wombat and his friends. This 1986 reprint is a lovely piece of nostalgia.
