Mom Wombat says, “Make friends, not war!”
“Try to get along, do not keep score…it doesn’t matter who has more toys, just have fun, my girls and boys. Don’t be a bully, not even now and then, not to a foe, not to a friend.”
In another beautifully illustrated collaboration by author Phyllis Schwartz
and artist Siski Kalla, we meet Mombat, as she’s known to her kids.
The wise mother Wombat shares plenty of ideas on how to get along with
others and have fun along the way. Using her wit and insightful wisdom,
Mombat aims to make the world a better place by teaching positive
communication skills and the importance of friendship whether
“across the street or across the sea.”
Plus she shares her wonderful
recipe for a Soothing, Sharing Shake you won’t want to miss!
Mom Wombat declares, "Make war no more! No more fighting in or outside my door!" "Fighting can hurt your heart and head. Why not make peace instead?" She also states that we should not do or say anything that would cause tempers to get hot. She advises you to use your words and speak through your feelings. We should make friendships, not foes!
Mom Wombat uses the animals in the forest to illustrate what is bad behavior. The unruly animalistic actions she pointed out can apply to human children, such as don't pull someone's hair. It's never wise to tease or bully or say hurtful things. Mom Wombat also points out creative ways that form positive bonds: invent a cool game, ride bikes with a friend, play music, write a silly song, and share your toys.
War is happening right now. We can see the impact it's having worldwide. It affects us on many levels. We must teach children to use words instead of weaponry to communicate their points. Educate them on the proper way to handle conflicts and emotions. If we want a world of peace, then adults must also follow the lessons of Mom Wombat as well.
"Using her wit and insightful wisdom, Mombat aims to make the world a better place by teaching positive communication skills and the importance of friendship." It's a story that I recommend 100%!

I've been constructing reviews for over a decade and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. Most of the reviews will be featured on my blog (Kam's Place), Pinterest, Instagram, BlueSky, and Goodreads. Don't forget to tip your waitress! :D
