This is a story about an original Australian - an aborigine called Charlie Kite, (whose family name was derived from that of the wetlands bird of the Kakadu, the Whistling Kite, that lived on the billabong where he was born), and a crocodile, called Ennui. As the name implies, Ennui, after a brilliant, and therefore, promising start to his career, finds he has a problem working long-term for Charlie, in the tourist industry. His talents lie dormant, and he becomes unhappy and lazy, not fulfilling his contractual obligations to Charlie. Eventually Ennui discovers his true potential as a boat builder extraordinaire, and his inner conflict is resolved. A story that reminds children to be true to themselves.
