Womby, Poggle & Frog go to the corner country

by Robin Mitchell

This is the story of Margaret's three favorite stuffed toys who went on a holiday with her Nan and Pop to a remote area in Australia. It is written to be read to a three to five year old and consists of a number of separate adventures on the holiday. The characters are Womby, an Australian wombat, Poggle a seal and Frog a one-eyed frog (his other eye had fallen off). Womby is wise, Poggle is a know-all and doesn't hear when he is told not to do something naughty, and Frog who is forever asking questions.
