Uncanny Valley ANNA WI E N E R

At 25, Anna was tired of her assistant job in New York publishing. She moved for a job in data analytics at a start-up in Silicon Valley. She felt like part of the future. But a tide was beginning to turn. Soon, like everyone else, she was addicted to the internet. Slowly, she began to realise that her blind faith in ambitious, arrogant young men from America’s soft suburbs wasn’t just her own personal pathology. It had become a global affliction.

Dippy the diprotodon is the BIGGEST and friendliest wombat who lived 100,000 years ago. Dippy has dug a new hole. A BIG hole, which leads him to a strange new world - and even stranger new friends.

Based on a concept by Ben Smith Whatley and brought to life by the creators of the internationally bestselling Diary of a Wombat, this is an hilarious story of prehistoric daring and chaos set in the fascinating world of ancient Australian megafauna.
