    About this ebook

    Wilma is waiting for something. But she's keeping it a secret.

    The other jungle animals want to know what she is waiting for.

    "She's waiting for a parcel from the queen," says Fruity.

    "She's waiting for the moon to turn blue," says Poppi.

    Can the animals guess what Wilma's secret is? Or will they have to wait too?
