Bloomsbury presents The Wombles by Elisabeth Beresford, read by Bernard Cribbins.

Classic and much loved characters are brought to life in the complete and unabridged audio edition of The Wombles, read by Bernard Cribbins, the original voice of the Wombles.

The Wombles is the first ever Wombles book and introduces the stern but kindly Great Uncle Bulgaria; Orinoco, who is particularly fond of his food and a subsequent forty winks; general handyman extraordinaire Tobermory, who can turn almost anything that the Wombles retrieve from Wimbledon Common into something useful; Madame Cholet, who cooks the most delicious and natural foods to keep the Wombles happy and contented; and last but not least, Bungo, one of the youngest and cheekiest Wombles of all, who has much to learn and is due to venture out on to the Common on his own for the very first time . . .©2012 Elisabeth Beresford (P)2012 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Critic Reviews

‘No kid should grow up without having the Wombles in their lives'
‘Endearing adventures involving gathering and sorting rubbish, braving meetings with humans and dogs and, in the nicest possible way, making sure the world is a better place'
‘Time has not lessened their charm and children reading them for the first time will be delighted'
‘Today's children will be as charmed as their parents by Great Uncle Bulgaria, Orinoco, Bungo and Tobermory and their quest to recycle rubbish and put it to good use'

I love The Wombles. Childhood nostalgia. The narrator is perfect in every way. So happy I found them here.

Fantastic!
