From the publisher

Cuddly, sweet-faced, and personality-filled animals in Fuge s inimitable style, plus a comforting story, add up to a winning combination. As long as you have good friends, you ll never really be lost. The popular follow-up to the bestselling Sometimes I Like to Curl Up in a Ball is now available as a board booksturdy enough for little hands opening it again and again. Critically acclaimed artist Charles Fuge joins with writer Angela McAllister to create a charmingly illustrated, deeply reassuring tale about getting lost and found again. When an endearing wombat and his friends play hide-and-seek, the little animal gets so involved in the game that he wanders over the hill and far away. Suddenly, Wombat realizes he s very, very alone.”
