She has been raised by her Aunt Isabelle, with assistance from the Butler, and has spent a pleasant childhood of afternoon teas and riding lessons. Now, however, her parents have left detailed instructions for Bronte in their will. (Instructions that, annoyingly, have been reinforced with faery cross-stitch, which means that if she doesn't complete them, terrible things could happen) She must travel the kingdoms alone, delivering gifts to ten other aunts: a farmer aunt who owns an orange orchard, a veterinarian aunt who specializes in dragon care, a pair of aunts who captain a cruise ship, and a former rock star aunt who is now the reigning monarch of a small kingdom. \u003cbr\u003e\nBut as she travels from aunt to aunt, Bronte suspects there might be more to this journey than the simple delivery of treasure; though little does she suspect that she will have to play such a big part in the extraordinary events that follow. \u003cbr\u003e\n Fans will also love book II in the series: \u003cbr\u003e\n9781913101107  The Slightly Alarming Tale of the Whispering Wars\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Grocer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991631540443,"sku":"9781913101053","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/1de2bd91-3c31-4bac-a9b2-78afb302e6ed.jpg?v=1784508017","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9781913101053-the-extremely-inconvenient-adventures-of-bronte-mettlestone","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
