About this Item

Softcover Book Condition: Very good for its age. Pages have browned over the years but very clean and easy to read. Nice firm little book. These simple sketches of Territory life centre around the young Aboriginal girl Bett-Bett (Dolly Bonson) and her dog Sue; as she appears from the Never- Never, stays awhile, learns a little, laughs a lot, wonders much, and finally returns to the bush again. This early tale of life in the Northern Territory was first published in 1905, and was followed up by the classic We of the Never-Never, the author's memoir of life with her family on Elsey Station, nearly 500 kilometres south of Darwin. This book was adapted for use in schools. 155 pp (extra photos added).
