Stories from the outback and beyond.
Some of My Friends Have Tails includes stories of all the animals who have played such a large part in Sara's life: Rosa the goanna who swam in the family pool. Pye-Wacket the cat who grew up believing he was a dog and Sundowner the poddy calf who loved eating the washing, 35mm film, and sheet music off the piano.
But not all the characters in Sara's life are four-legged. We meet the sixteen-year-old housekeeper who was smuggling drugs, and the Italian gardener who sang opera at dawn. And there are some familiar faces as well: Charlie, Uncle Dick, Max, and Marlee.

New
Just what it says, direct from the publisher or distributor.
As New
Fresh, crisp, unblemished, unread. As if newly purchased.
Fine
Almost as new. May lack freshness or show the mere traces of handling or use. Considered among many to be the premium grade for older editions.
Near Fine
Marginally fine. These books don't make the fine grade as they may have the smallest stain, bumping to corners, or the previous owner’s names. Dust Jackets with closed tears, creases, etc. Any major defects noted.
Note: From here on, there may be "+" and "-" in a grade, which will mean that it is above the grade noted but not quite to the next higher grade for "+", and that it is below the grade noted but not quite to the next lower grade for "-".
Very Good
A used book showing some modest signs of wear; blemishing; (scuffs, nicks, creasing, fading, small stains, small DJ tears). Still in great condition for a used book. Any major defects noted.
Good
The average used, worn book that has all pages present. May have fading, soiling, tears, scuffs, nicks, heavy creasing, underlining, highlighting, DJ with chips/tears. Any major defects noted, other minor defects may not be noted.
Acceptable/Fair
A book with significant wear & faults, still a reading copy with full text still readable, may lack endpapers. Any major defects noted.
Poor
Much use & sufficiently worn and/or soiled, stained, may have loose joints, hinges or pages. These are books that have been saved from being sent to the rubbish dump.
All book measurements are approximate
Book Terminology
Tanning - age tanning or browning/yellowing occurs over time on the pages of books, tanning tends to start on the outside of the pages and progresses inward over time, often creating a brownish or yellowish border around the page edges.
Foxed / Foxing - age-related brown or brown-yellowish spotting of the paper caused by a chemical reaction over time.
Sunned - damage done to a book cover or dust jacket caused by exposure to direct sunlight.
Closed Tear - indicates a torn page in which no material has been lost. A closed tear can be pressed back into place or sometimes fixed with archival repair tape.
Ex-library – the book was once owned by, and circulated in, a public library. This book could well be in any of the above general categories but more often than not has been well used. May have library stickers, stamps, or markings.
