An adventure game for young children, from the Queensland Department of Education: a pet chosen at random, the clues to what it is gathered round the town, and the right food for it from the pet shop. Its copyright card names Cathie Sherwood, Bruce Macdonald and Mark Wharton, and it runs on a card-based toolkit for the Apple IIe, with the mouse.
