Dingo - Charles De Lint - Young Adult - A wonderful young adult fantasy love story. I've been a fan for more decades then I care to admit, and this is an interesting blend of the mythologies from Canada and Australia. Great characters with no stereo-types. Best of all the parents involved do not come off as clueless.
