What is The invisible womble about?

Join the Wombles of Wimbledon Common in five lively adventures filled with mischief, clever inventions and unexpected surprises.

Great Uncle Bulgaria, Bungo, Tobermory and their friends turn discarded objects into useful treasures as they tidy up after humans. With gentle humour, inventive problem-solving and a strong message about caring for the environment, these stories celebrate the Wombles at their funniest and most resourceful.
