The Show is a thrilling annual event a blend of superb rodeo, and state fair. After a wonderful sea voyage through the East they arrive in Australia a few days ahead of the show's opening date. Kit and her companions accept an invitation from a wealthy traveling companion to visit a huge, and fabulously wealthy sheep station in the 'outback.' The station is enormous, with its own cinema, bathing pool, and private plane service. After a thrilling holiday a great bushfire breaks out. With the plane out of action a desperate battle has to be fought against the huge fire, and Kit races the flames on a borrowed horse to reach the nearest town to bring warning and get help. In the nick of time, the trio get back to Sydney for fresh showjumping triumphs at the show. *** Quantity Available: 1. Category: Children & Young Adult; Teenage Fiction; ISBN: 0723555222.
