Selby's
Secret
Selby’s secret is that he is the only talking dog in Australia
and, perhaps, the world. With dreams of cosy fireside chats
with his owners, the Trifles, almost too late, Selby realises
his gift could change him forever from family pooch to family
servant. Selby’s zany misadventures while struggling to
pretend he’s just an ordinary barking dog will have you
howling with laughter.

Selby
Speaks
Selby
is still valiantly trying to keep his gift of the gab a secret.
After all, if his owners, the Trifles, find out that their
pet pooch can talk, they might ask him to do chores like answer
the telephone or do the shopping. Worse still, they might
hand him over to snoopy scientists and he'd spend the rest
of his life answering stupid questions. Selby has vowed to
keep his trap shut — even if it kills him! But only
fast talking can save him when he's caught in a cage with
Two-Tooth Tina, or is about to be dumped over a cliff, or
is going to be sliced into Selby-salami by a gigantic saw
blade … Yikes!

Selby
Screams
Selby
is still determined to keep his amazing abilities a secret,
but he needs to speak out — indeed to scream — when
he's being pursued by the Beast of Bogusville, or finds himself
dangling in mid-air, or comes face to face with a living, breathing,
Egyptian mummy. Gulp, yiiikes, what's this? The Trifles have
a photo that proves Selby is no ordinary canine! His days of
freedom could be numbered.
