The book's audience will be anyone that appreciates a swiftly moving novella containing Aussie humour and the nuances therein. Wacky characters abound in this fictional 1920s village, Mungonana and its surrounding districts. It will appeal to readers who can identify with the characters' less outrageous behaviour and no doubt, to some who can identify with the outrageous stuff. Having indigenous content, the story should meet with their approval. There are numerous fantasy animals in the mix. These will draw in younger adults and intrigue others from the above groups. The main character is a 6 feet 4 inches, 16 stone blonde lady who is, at the age of 20, the uncompromising and undisputed leader of Mungonana. She has scant regard for the male sex, however, near the end of the story we find a subtle change has occurred.
