About this listen

Bloomsbury presents The Wombles at Work by Elisabeth Beresford, read by Jamie Demetriou.

Join in the adventures of the Wombles, the classic and much loved creatures, as they make good use of the bad rubbish they find on Wimbledon Common, in this book by the original creator of the Wombles.

There has been a huge festival and no end of rubbish has been left behind – everything from sunglasses to shoes, drinks cans and bottles. Who would have thought humans could leave so much behind, not bothering to recycle? The Wombles have their work cut out for them . . .

Abridged versions of some of the Wombles stories can be heard on Radio 4 and BBC Sounds for Christmas 2023. Unabridged brand-new audiobooks are available too.

The performance does not do the story justice. No Womble ever had a high pitch voice. Orinoco speaks slow, he is lazy, why perform his voice at a fast pace? I feel let down.
