Illustrations for AquaDog, by Lisa Van Der Wielen, illustrated by Alison Mutton

A charming tale of following your passions, set in the Western Australian Wheatbelt.

Aqua the farm dog really loves to swim,

Sometimes the farmer gets angry at him.

Instead of herding sheep he loves to splash,

diving under the water in a flash.

When the rain falls and the water levels rise,

a lesson is learnt of immeasurable size.

When a flood puts his talents to the text,

is swimming what Aqua Dog does best?
