Product Description

Audrey of the Outback (1)

In this story about identity and independence,Â the gutsy girl from the bushÂ tries being a farmer, a man, a teacher, and a pirateâ€”all with dire consequences!

Audrey is 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 questionsâ€”like whether being a swaggie (or bush traveler, as explained in the handy glossary)Â is lonelier than being a girl, and whether it's better to be a sheep or a cow. Determined, mischievous, imaginative, and inquisitive, AudreyÂ is Australia's response to Pippi LongstockingÂ and Ramona Quimby.
