About this ebook

"Australia's king of young adult fiction" The Australian

Dreamed about you again. Like I do most nights.

Tony writes letters. To Miffy.

Telling powerful stories has become the hallmark of John Marsden's writing. But even John Marsden has never written a book as powerful and gutsy as Dear Miffy.
