The Wild Life.

A Little Bit Lost.

Roo has woken up with three new babies – weird babies – in her pouch. But where did they come from? And can Wombat become the funcle (fun uncle) he thinks he will be? Follow Quokka, Wombat and Roo on a quirky quest to return three very lost chicks to their parents.

The Wild Life: A Little Bit Lost is written by my better half Laura Bunting, and is published in Australia by Scholastic (May 2023). The first and second books in the Wild Life series are also available.


This project is supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland.
