Albert of Adelaide by Howard L. Anderson
“He was beginning to feel that his escape from the zoo and his flight through the desert had been for nothing. Here he was, where Old Australia was supposed to be, a place where he was to have a home, friends, and others of his kind.

Albert of Adelaide (2012) is a new entrant into the ranks of talking animal books.
