Description

Tiki was a desert-born camel and still more than half wild when he met his rider, Jill. Jill was an accomplished horse rider who had never ridden a camel.

Tiki and Jill had entered the Great Australian Camel Race – a three-month trek from the red centre of Australia all the way to the Gold Coast. But Tiki was a tricky camel to ride. He spat on Jill. He bucked. He liked to roll in burrs. Then one especially tough day among the sand dunes of the Simpson Desert, everything changed. And Tiki and Jill became firm friends.

The amazing true story about the bond between a camel called Tiki and his rider, Jill, and the extraordinary endurance race that captured the imagination of Australia. Recommended for ages 5+.
