Forty-one engaging and clever short stories feature in this latest anthology from Stringybark Stories. Selected from over 290 entries these winning and highly commended tales are wickedly intriguing, thought-provoking, sometimes sad, sometimes funny, but always a rollicking read. Marco meandered through the checkered picnic blankets in the park, trying not to step on their owners. Plates of potato salad and coleslaw threatened to trip him up.

I lurched away to avoid the mummy's abuse and headed for the cemetery at the other side of the park. - From "Another Bike" by Terence Phillips He really didn't want to be here, sitting in my office that hot afternoon, dust clouds forming out in the distance on the plain.
