Diary of a Wombat
Diary of a Wombat is a story about an animal who trains the humans around her to take care of her needs. Written by Australian author Jackie French and illustrated by Bruce Watley, Diary of a Wombat follows the little marsupial as she figures out ways to manipulate humans into giving her the best eats and digs.
It’s a super cute book, and was so wildly popular that there’s at least one sequel!

I love when shows are based on books! My son’s birthday is at the end of March, and he would like to take our extended family to see this show as one of his presents.
I’m intrigued by the opportunity for the kids to see puppet-based theater live, and to consider the technical challenges of bringing a picturebook to the stage in this way.
I love puppets! I can’t wait to see how that is apart of the show. This is such a great book, both my girls are going to love it.
I am interested to see how they have adapted the book into a show.
