Dot Collard weaves together stories centred around her family in the south-west of Western Australia. This book is for anyone who loves a good belly laugh. Dot Collard is an Australian national treasure.
Born in 1922, in Waroona, South Western Australia, Dot Collard was as natural a storyteller as she was an international actress. A mother of nine children, Dot was immersed in family life. It wasn't until she was in her sixties that she launched her career as a theatre and television actress.
