About this listen
Bronte Mettlestone's parents ran away to have adventures when she was a baby, leaving her to be raised by her aunt Isabelle and the Butler. She's had a perfectly pleasant childhood of afternoon teas and riding lessons - and no adventures, thank you very much. But Bronte's parents have left extremely detailed (and bossy) instructions for Bronte in their will.
The instructions must be followed to the letter, or disaster will befall Bronte's home. She is to travel the kingdoms and empires, perfectly alone, delivering special gifts to her 10 other aunts. There is a farmer aunt who owns an orange orchard and a veterinarian aunt who specialises in dragon care, a pair of aunts who captain a cruise ship together and a former rock star aunt who is now the reigning monarch of a small kingdom. Now, armed with only her parents' instructions, a chest full of strange gifts and her own strong will, Bronte must journey forth to face dragons, Chief Detectives and pirates - and the gathering suspicion that there might be something more to her extremely inconvenient quest than meets the eye....
From the award-winning Jaclyn Moriarty comes a fantastic tale of high intrigue, grand adventure and an abundance of aunts.

Practically perfect in every way
This book is an extremely unique set of adventures and my favourite part was the the bit where bronte saved the baby and I disliked nothing. I would also recommend this book for ages eight and up

My 8 yr old made his way through this book and said it was definitely 5 stars all round. Has dragons, mythical places and a twist at the end!

A gorgeous story for young and old to enjoy
I thought the performance enhanced the little story of adventure. A quiet young girl who steps up to the task required of her.
A fresh kind of childlike logic applied as often as possible in such a what to be humorous and entertaining.
