Cesta po mámině stopě je však plná nebezpečí – číhají na ní nejen jedovatí hadi, hroziví varani a jiná hladová havěť, ale i nepřátelská vlčí smečka. Aby z toho vyvázli celí, budou Gwen a její přátelé potřebovat jeden druhého.
Po čtyřech letech strávených v divočině jen se zvířaty Gwen konečně narazila na člověka! Jenže místo toho, aby jí cizí muži pomohli, zavřeli mladou robinsonku do náklaďáku a odvezli ji do zajateckého tábora. Odstřižená od své smečky, padla vlčí dívka do rukou těm samým nepřátelům, před kterými s rodinou utíkala. Její věrní zvířecí přátelé pod vedením vlčice Jitřenky se však nehodlají vzdát bez boje.

Anh Do nearly didn't make it to Australia. His entire family came close to losing their lives on the sea as they escaped from war-torn Vietnam in an overcrowded boat. But nothing -- not murderous pirates, nor the imminent threat of death by hunger, disease or dehydration as they drifted for days -- could quench their desire to make a better life in the country they had dreamed about. Life in Australia was hard, an endless succession of back-breaking work, crowded rooms, ruthless landlords and make-do everything. But there was a loving extended family, and always friends and play and something to laugh about for Anh, his brother Khoa and their sister Tram. Things got harder when their father left home when Anh was thirteen -- they felt his loss very deeply and their mother struggled to support the family on her own. His mother's sacrifice was an inspiration to Anh and he worked hard during his teenage years to help her make ends meet, also managing to graduate high school and then university. Another inspiration was the comedian Anh met when he was about to sign on for a 60-hour a week corporate job. Anh asked how many hours he worked. 'Four,' the answer came back, and that was it. He was going to be a comedian! The Happiest Refugee tells the incredible, uplifting and inspiring life story of one of our favourite personalities. Tragedy, humour, heartache and unswerving determination -- a big life with big dreams. Anh's story will move and amuse all who read it.
The laugh-out-loud, reach-for-your-hanky story of one of Australia's best-loved comedians.
