Major Dakota's Ghost: Astro's Adventures

by Susan Day

Overview

When Commander Rocky is dog-napped by a ghost and disappears in a puff of smoke there is only one thing Astro can do. Summon the team together and go to the USA to save him. However, things don’t go to plan and our valiant heroes become locked in a room without a door.

Then they come face to face with five ghosts in a haunted house and have to save a group of celebrity dogs. Still, all in a day’s work for our intrepid heroes but why then does the American Government beg them to leave?!

In Astro’s Adventures, Major Dakota’s Ghost, we meet again a tunnel digging terrier who carries a diamond encrusted nail file. A large dog for which the complexities of door handles are a complete mystery and who, instead, opens everything with his head. As well as, a commando, khaki wearing Blue heeler who is armed with a hunting bone and a smell grenade.

All are part of a team of dogs who work for a mysterious organisation. This organisation exists without detection and operates right under our very noses. Its sole purpose is to save dogs from neglect and to save each other too!

This is the fourth book in the Astro Adventure’s series and it will delight and entertain your family with its fast moving plots and funny storylines.

Reviews:
“Astro and Susan are at it again. This series is sort of like Lassie on laughing gas, sweet on one hand, funny on the other (unlike Lassie which was so saccharine sweet you'd get tooth decay). I know the author lives in Melbourne. I suggest she puts forward an idea to cable TV for a TV show. ASTRO'S ADVENTURES would hardly be out of place on one of the kids stations...” D. Mason

About the Author

Susan is an author, canine behaviourist, and a storyteller. She lives with her family and dogs, in particular, Rocky the Border collie and Stella, the blind dog. She spends her time blogging, writing and illustrating; training and counselling dogs and being bossed around by the family cat, Speed Bump Charlie and his sidekick, Furball (see Dogs in Space). Susan travelled around the world twice before she was seven years old. It seemed only fitting that the wonderful events she experienced and the places she visited on these journeys be recorded for history. Thus, her story telling skills began. Firstly, to Rupert Bear, her lifelong companion, and then to a host of imaginary friends and finally to her pet dog once the family finally set down roots in Australia. Susan is passionate about children's literature and wants to inspire children to be better people and encourage them to follow their dreams. She runs workshops for children teaching them how to form the wonders of their imaginations into stories. Susan lives in a small country town where there are more kangaroos than people. She shares her country property with four dogs, three cats, three rescue guinea pigs and a very large fish and her patient husband. More about her adventures are reflected in Clarence the Snake from Dunolly.
