Description

Hi! I'm Juliet. I'm ten years old. And I'm nearly a vet! It's really hot and dry in the outback where my grandparents live. I'm so excited that Chelsea is coming with us to visit them. I wonder what outback animals we'll see? My cousin Jarrod will be there, but I get the feeling he doesn't like me very much and - even worse - he doesn't seem to like animals! Maybe this is my chance to change his mind ...
