There were loads of adventures and Selby was in each one. There was so much dog suit stuff, there was even Selby's Halloween! There were a few poems in it and there was even a funny thing at the end that was titled "Unsuitable Me". And at the start was the same kind of poem but it was a little bit different and it was title "Suitable Me". And Selby has a special kind of suit called his dog suit. Selby is the only talking dog in Australia, or perhaps the world!
