Bronte’s Big Business by Liane Young and Tamlyn Teow captures the essence of a young girl's love for the beach, her favourite place in the world. With sunny skies, soft sand, and a sparkling sea, it seems like paradise. But when an accident during Nippers training leaves her teammate injured, Bronte realises her beloved beach has a nasty litter problem.

Rising to the challenge, Bronte and her friends decide to tackle the issue creatively. She works tirelessly to execute her unique plan, and to her delight, it’s an instant success. However, she soon wonders if the plan might be working a little too well for her own good. A surprise source might just hold the answer.

This uplifting and entertaining story about real Australian kids isn’t just about the fun and adventures of childhood; it carries an important message. While everyone can do their bit to care for the environment and make the world a better place, it's also crucial to take time to enjoy the fun moments of childhood.
