About this audiobook

Speedy is the fastest, cleverest dolphin around Kangaroo Island and to Mike and his fisherman father Ben he is a special friend. However some of the fisherman, including the greedy Boris Butler and big game hunters Darcy Drake and Wolf Haast, don’t like Speedy as much as they believe he ‘steals’ their fish. Set in a small fishing community, Speedy is another of Colin Thiele’s classic stories. Read by Anna Steen, Speedy is a wonderful story about the power of friendship.
