Tui the Wonder Dog recounts the adventures of Captain Dan, First Mate Annie, and Tui, the ship's dog, as they sail up and down the coasts of New Zealand. These charming stories are inspired by the real-life adventures of the author, his family, and their little black labrador. They include rescuing baby dolphins and shipwrecked sailors, confronting robbers, and finding their way in the mist by the smell of cooking bacon.
