Audrey Barlow’s family lives in the Outback in South Australia. Her dad is a ‘dogger’, a dingo trapper, who is away for weeks at a time. The Barlows live too far from anywhere for her to go to school and other children hardly ever come to stay. But Audrey is never bored or lonely. She helps Mum do jobs around the house, has lessons with her big brother, Price, and watches the antics of her little brother, Dougie. Sometimes visitors drop in, like Toothless the swaggie with his mysterious bag of bones, and Mr Akbar the camel driver who brings the mail. And Audrey has plenty of time to ponder the big questions in life, like do dogs go to heaven and does the sky touch the ground? Whether she’s checking a tree for possums, camping behind the house like a real swaggie, or cleaning the chook shed, Audrey has her best friend, Stumpy, to keep her company and discuss the big questions of life. What would she do without him?
