Notes

Meet Audrey Barlow - a 1930s outback girl with a lot on her mind. Her dad has gone away to work, her brother Price thinks he’s too old for games, and little Dougie likes pretending to be a bird. So together with her best friend Stumpy, Audrey ponders some of life’s big questions ... like whether being a swaggie (or bush traveler, as explained in the handy glossary) is lonelier than being a girl, and whether it’s better to be a sheep or a cow. The Outback is Audrey’s backyard. You’ll soon wish you lived there too.
