Then Mum called out to me, "Rufus, wake up. Come quickly. We have to help someone." I rubbed my eyes and ran to the door that Mum was holding open for me. She closed it behind me to keep the snakes out. "Bunjee, Poly," Mum called out. The boys scrambled to get out of their kennels. They knew Mum was upset by the sound of her voice. Mum kneeled down in front of us and said, "Boys, listen to me. We have to help find Bina, the little girl who lives on the farm up the road. I heard her mummy on the radio saying Bina is lost in the bush, and she is asking people to come and search the bush for her. So we will go and find her footprints and the smell of her little body. We have to find her quickly before the night comes, and that will be soon."
