About This Book

Wry and insightful, this short story is told by a young American girl, who is all too knowing about her own world, but ignorant about the Kiwi strangers she meets.

When Ruthie's father needs a drink, he takes his young daughter with him. She sits in the bar, with her pink panther, watching the drinkers and fending off unwanted approaches. One day there are strangers at the bar, with an unusual accent, saying they are from 'Nyu Zillun'. They give Ruthie a 'little green monster' they call a 'tuckie' and ask her about herself . . .
