註釋

THE STRIPED DOG, referencing the extinct Tasmanian tiger, follows young Gerald as he takes to the woods in search of discovery. Gerald spends his weekends reading about world-famous explorers. Like the adventurers in his books, Gerald collects plant samples and sketches reptiles and insects he finds in the woods. He thinks he knows it all until he stumbles upon an unusual creature thought to be extinct for decades. Gerald learns everything he can about the animal's habits and even captures a photograph. His discovery could make him famous like the explorers he reads about, but at what cost to the animal? With a theme of conservation, original art by Ian Smith, and pages filled with scientifically accurate wildlife references, THE STRIPED DOG celebrates the wonder of wilderness while challenging readers to consider the impact of our actions on the wild world around us.
