Sophie
the incredible true story of the castaway dog
by Emma Pearse
When Jan and Dave Griffin's Australian cattle dog was swept overboard in a storm on the edge of the Great Barrier Reef, her owners were devasted. Surely she'd drowned? Little did they know, Sophie swam six miles through shark-infested waters to remote Keswick Island. When food and water proved scarce, she took to the water once again and swam to nearby St. Bee's island, where she survived on her own for five months before being rescued and reunited with the Griffins. This is Sophie's incredible true story of canine fortitude and magical good fortune. Animal-lovers and adventure enthusiasts alike will find themselves cheering as she makes her determined way home.
