Join us to celebrate the launch of Tenderfoot by Toni Jordan

Tuesday 26 August, 6.00pm
Readings Carlton

Join us to celebrate the launch of Toni Jordan's new book, Tenderfoot.

Brisbane, 1975: Andie Tanner's world is small but whole. Her mum is complicated, but she adores her dad and the kennel of racing greyhounds that live under their house. Andie is a serious girl with plans: finish school with her friends, then apprentice to her father until she can become a greyhound trainer, with dogs of her very own.

With luminous, aching prose, Tenderfoot will move you like no other story this year.

Free, but bookings are essential.

Please book here.

Carlton, Wurundjeri Country, 309 Lygon St, Carlton
