Rhyming text follows six little wombats on walkabout and a hungry dingo following, envisioning them as his lunch until the wombats turn the tables on him.

In brilliant rhyming verse, Wompie The Wombat tells the touching story of a lovable little wombat looking for something to be proud of. "The littlest of the wombats, Wompie was gentle and shy. He didn't feel at all special, so he asked his parents why..." One by one, his friends came by to cheer Wompie up. However, he was inconsolable. But then a dangerous bush fire started, which soon surrounded them. Wompie realizes that he might have to dig deep inside himself to find a way out... Set in the Australian outback, Wompie the Wombat, with its upbeat rhyming text, is fun to read, poetic and imaginative. A charming story about the power of friendship, grit, and never giving up, this book is printed in Dyslexie font and formatted to make it both easy to read and perfect for reading together.

It would come as no surprise that many readers may be shocked and intrigued by the title of our book. Some (especially our medical colleagues) may wonder why it is even worthwhile to raise the issue of killing by doctors. Killing is clearly an- thetical to the Art and Science of Medicine, which is geared toward easing pain and suffering and to saving lives rather than smothering them. Doctors should be a source of comfort rather than a cause for alarm. Nevertheless, although they often don’t want to admit it, doctors are people too. Physicians have the same genetic library of both endearing qualities and character defects as the rest of us but their vocation places them in a position to intimately interject themselves into the lives of other people. In most cases, fortunately, the positive traits are dominant and doctors do more good than harm. While physicists and mathematicians paved the road to the stars and deciphered the mysteries of the atom, they simultaneously unleashed destructive powers that may one day bring about the annihilation of our planet. Concurrently, doctors and allied scientists have delved into the deep secrets of the body and mind, mastering the anatomy and physiology of the human body, even mapping the very molecules that make us who we are. But make no mistake, a person is not simply an elegant b- logical machine to be marveled at then dissected.
