FINALE.
Before putting away the pen and closing the inkstand, now that Dot has
said all she wishes to be recorded of her bewildering adventures, the
writer would like to warn little people, that the best thing to do when
one is lost in the bush, is to sit still in one place, and not to try to
find one's way home at all. If Dot had done this, and had not gone off
in the Kangaroo's pouch, she would have been found almost directly. As
the more one tries to find one's way home, the more one gets lost, and
as helpful Kangaroos like Dot's are very scarce, the best way to get
found quickly, is to wait in one place until the search parties find
one. Don't forget this advice! And don't eat any strange berries in the
bush, unless a Kangaroo brings them to you.
