Walking the Boundaries

By Jackie French About

He could sell the farm and be rich! All Martin wants to do is walk the boundaries and the farm will be his. It seems like a huge joke when his great-grandfather tells him that he doesn’t even have to walk all the way around the fences. It is a bright and sunny day when Martin sets out but suddenly he finds himself being swept away in a flash flood! Meg rescues him, and Wullamudulla saves them both from a bushfire. What kind of strange boundary has he crossed?
