The Tales Of Mr Walker

The Tales Of Mr Walker Introducing Mr Walker by Jess Black is a heartwarming children’s book that blends gentle humour with a whisker of mystery, set in a grand Melbourne hotel. Inspired by a real Guide Dog Ambassador, it’s the kind of Australian story collection that feels cosy, lively, and full of small surprises.

On a crisp autumn day, Mr Walker—a charming labrador with a talent for finding the unexpected—arrives at the fanciest hotel in town. His first impressions are a little wobbly, but he’s determined to be on his best behaviour. Before long, corridors, guests, and hidden corners lead him into four delightful adventures that celebrate curiosity, kindness, and courage without ever talking down to young readers.

Perfect for kids who love animal stories, short chapter books, and read-aloud favourites, as well as families looking for a feel-good gift with purpose.
