Description Jasmin is a twelve-year-old Adelaide girl of Aboriginal descent.
Her parents, both doctors, have volunteered to work in the Middle East for a year, so Jasmin will stay with her aunt and uncle in tropical Darwin for that time.
The prospect is both very exciting and saddening, but to help with the sadness of missing her parents, Jasmin will be allowed to get a dog - her very first one.
At the local animal shelter, she meets and chooses Reg.
