Description: WE live in MELBOURNE - and so do our books !!! ie They are NOT coming from overseas !! Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 'This is a collection of 14 short stories, mostly humorous, mostly autobiographical. Like Kenneth Cook's previous other collections of humorous tales ( "Killer Koala" & "Frill Neck ") these stories are claimed to be true, but the ratio of plausible tales to dubious tales is much lower. I found myself laughing out loud again and again. If you like a healthy and humorous mix of animals, nature, adventure, get-rich-quick-schemes, hard-drinking, and catastrophes that spiral out of control, you will love this book.' About the author... Kenneth Cook (1929-1987) was an Australian journalist, film director, script writer and novelist best known for his works 'Wake in Fright' and the 'Killer Koala' trilogy. Born in Lakemba, New South Wales, Cook attended Fort Street High School. He founded a new political party and the first butterfly farm in Australia. While on a camping trip near his birthplace, Cook died of a heart attack in 1987 while on a publicity tour promoting ?Wombat Revenge?, the second volume in his bestselling trilogy of humorous short stories.
