Sandra and Blue

Sandra and Blue by George Man

After living on an Outback Australian research station with her parents for five years, Sandra was adjusting to life back in Holland. She would be starting high school and had to get used to freezing cold, snowy winters, and no more horseriding, swimming and daily outdoor adventures like she had in Australia.

At first, she thought she would be facing it without her beloved companion, Blue, the Australian cattle dog who had become her soul mate in the Outback. Soon enough, everyone realised that Sandra and Blue simply couldn't live without each other. And Blue joined his mistress for a brand-new life in Europe.

Now that he was a city dog, Blue quickly learnt some handy new skills, like shopping for groceries for the family and doing household chores. But in the face of sudden tragedy, his survival skills from the Outback days kick in, and Blue embarks on a long and lonely adventure to reunite with his beloved Sandra.

Will he make it back to her alive?
