Bronte’s Big Business

Bronte is nervous
about meeting a group of girls who are friends of her best mate Annabelle. Will
she like them? Will they like her? How will they all get along for two whole
weeks? Bronte needn’t have worried, as they all connect when something which has
been playing on Bronte’s mind gets the girls to unite as a team.

Bronte has always
been a beach girl. She grew up by one and has been a Nipper for as long as she
can remember. She’d do anything for her beach... so when she realises that not
everyone respects it as much as they should, she decides to do something about
it. After a quick brainstorming session with her new best friends, she comes up
with a very out-of-the-box solution that sees her become a business
entrepreneur! Bronte decides to start a beach stall selling a line of reusable,
personally designed food storage items to encourage visitors not to pollute the
beach with rubbish. Soon, however, the stall becomes a victim of its own
success, and Bronte is overwhelmed with the demands her business takes upon her
time and mental health. Taking on adult responsibilities is a full-time job and
one she struggles to cope with, until some sound advice from Annabelle about
the importance of just being a kid makes Bronte see that one person should
never feel the need to take everything on their shoulders alone. Everyone should
do their bit to be environmentally responsible, but everyone also has a right
to be happy and to do the things they love... like spending care-free days
frolicking on the beach with their best friend!

It comes with a
very strong moral attached to it; no child should be made to feel like they
have to grow up too soon and deal with adult issues, but they can all be
mindful of the impact their actions have on the world around them. Parents
would agree with this sentiment and it gives children peace of mind. This ties
in nicely with the original purpose of the Australian Girl Dolls - age
