Red Dog
Louis de Bernières
A very good children's book, set in Australia's North-West Territory. Red
Dog comes over as a real, endearing character, but the humour is mostly
juvenile (though none the worse for it).
The book is enjoyable and come complete with pictures (shown to the
meeting for Gill's benefit), and as a bonus you learn a bit of Australian
along the way (for example, red haired people are frequently called
"Blue").
