About this product

Product Information

When Sebastian was discovered beside the body of his dead mother on the side of a road, he was just four months old. Near death himself, the tiny wombat was nursed by the author until he reached full maturity, and finally returned to the wild. When you read this book you'll learn just how Sebastian's hat came to play such an important part in his life. 'Sebastian Lives in a Hat' was voted Best Children's Book in the 1985 Whitley Awards given by the Royal Zoological Society of New South Wales, and was short listed for the 1986 Australian Picture Book of the Year award.

One of the best Australian children’s books
This book is beautiful story about a baby wombat that was found alive in its mother’s pouch after a roadkill. Raised by humans from infancy it tells how they improvised using a hat for its pouch, but as Sebastian grew bigger he kept on needing a bigger hat, until he was fully grown and didn’t need a hat at all. It is a simple storyline, but told in a way children can understand, the beautiful artwork engages the child which is sure to make it an all time favourite.
