Some of My Friends have Tails - Stories From the Outback and Beyond

Pan Macmillan, Australia, 1995. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Very Good. Illustrator: Marlee Ranacher. Sara Henderson's love of animals was firmly established in her early years and has continued through her life. She has had many extraordinary relationships with them and now she shares some of these tales. There is Rosa the goanna who swam in the family pool. Pye-Wacket the cat who grew up believing he was a dog. And Sundowner the poddy calf who loved eating the washing, 35mm film, and sheet music off the piano. But not all the characters in Sara's life are four-legged. We meet the sixteen-year-old housekeeper who was smuggling drugs, and the Italian gardener who sang opera at dawn. And there are some familiar faces as well: Charlie, Uncle Dick, Max, and Marlee. These stories range from the funny to the heartbreaking, from Sara's earliest memories to the present day, and take place in many countries. This magical, entertaining book will delight readers everywhere. 260 pages. Illustrator: Marlee Ranacher. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos.
