Peter sets out into the Australian bush on his pony that leaps like lightning to find a princess to rescue from a dragonβsomething only a brave and good person can attempt. Along the way he meets a trusty companion, a kangaroo with a bottomless pouch, and together they follow the directions of the helpful Willy Willy Man across the landscape. With a trip to the moon with the Pale Witch to sweep it clear of Russian and American cameras, a journey across the Plain of Clutching Grass, a visit to a giant's castle and a battle with the Doubt Cats, Peter's bravery and kindness are put to the test.
This humorous and enchanting Australian fairy tale will enthrall readers of all ages.
