• A hilariously told story about what can happen when we let our imaginations get away from us.

• Funny, brightly colored animals come to life with clever lift-the-flaps.

• A tale that conveys an important message about not judging others too quickly.

A wild wombat is coming to the zoo.

The animals don’t know what a wombat is, but when they learn the news, they each let their imaginations run wild. Before long they conclude it must be a terrible monster, bigger than an elephant, faster than a gazelle, with hideous fangs and claws.

This hilarious and timely picture book provides a powerful lesson in what happens when we judge others before we get to know them.
