Wombat liked her things just so. Everything had its place, and nothing was out of order.
She couldn’t say the same about her neighbours. But that was their business, and Wombat didn’t concern herself with others’ business.
When a very hot, dry summer causes dangerous fires in their neighbourhood, a group of animals are desperate to find water and shelter. But it’ll take the quiet heroism of a reluctant wombat to provide resources and a cosy, cool, safe burrow, demonstrating the true importance of community.
