The Australian outback is a place of red earth, endless skies, winding rivers and remarkable animals-and whenever someone is sick, injured or in trouble, there is one little aeroplane everyone hopes to hear.

Meet Doctor Clancy, a kind-hearted kookaburra who flies across the outback in his trusty aircraft, The Laughing Gull, bringing help wherever it is needed. Alongside dependable Matilda Roo, ingenious (if occasionally overconfident) Dusty Dingo, and the endlessly enthusiastic Wizzle the frill-neck lizard, every journey becomes an adventure filled with courage, compassion and plenty of laughter.

From rescuing frightened koalas during bushfires and treating a crocodile with a dreadful toothache to tracking down a missing caravan, delivering the outback mail and solving mysterious illnesses after the rains, these twelve heartwarming stories celebrate friendship, teamwork and the simple joy of helping others.

Doctor Clancy and the Laughing Gull is a cosy collection of adventures perfect for children and families who love memorable characters, gentle humour and stories with big hearts.

Climb aboard The Laughing Gull and discover that no journey is too far when kindness is leading the way.
