The other kids call Christopher 'the feral'. Withdrawn and solitary, he spends his nights in the bush haunts of the wombats. He communicates only with written messages: BE SILENT, BE PATIENT, BE EVERYWHERE. Are these messages from the one called the Wombat King? A sensitive tale of obsession by acclaimed poet and author Philip Neilsen, with disturbing, shadowy illustrations by Mark Wilson.
