While wildfire is raging above, Wombat stays safe in his cosy burrow. What might he do when trouble -- in the form of an unexpected guest -- comes knocking at his door? After an instant's hesitation, he opens the door and says "Come in, my friend, come in!" Soon others come a-knocking. One by one, five uniquely Australian animals -- Wallaby, Kookaburra, Platypus, Koala, and Sugar Glider -- appear. Wombat welcomes them all, with growing anxiety. Before long, Wombat's peaceful burrow becomes a pandemonium of messy and unruly guests who take his favourite chair and wear his slippers. What, oh what, is a bighearted Wombat to do? But trouble doesn't last forever, and once the fire passes, wombat is relieved to finally find himself alone. Or is he?
