Mr McDon and Max By Lorraine Teece
Cattle appeared in Mr McDon's paddock, but left no hoof prints to show how they got there. Can you solve the Magic Mystery?
EXTRACT FROM FIRST PAGE:
The sun bathed the Carnarvon Ranges in majestic light, reflecting in the shiny droplets of transparent dew on grasses and twig. A soft blue haze covered trees. The shimmering white cliffs, just for a second, only a second reminded me of the White Cliffs of Dover. The magnificent sight took my breath away.
Every morning, this is what greeted Mr McDon and Max, the clever Border Collie, on their cattle station in the Australian outback. The day showed promise and contentment. There was nothing to suggest the scenario that would be played out that day.
