Extremely inconvenient adventures of Bronte Mettlestone. Jacklyn Moriarty. 2017.

I WAS TEN YEARS-OLD WHEN MY PARENTS WERE KILLED BY PIRATES THIS DID NOT BOTHER ME AS MUCH AS YOU MIGHT THINK I HARDLY KNEW MY PARENTS

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.

But Bronte's parents have left extremely detailed (and bossy) instructions for Bronte in their will.

She is to travel the Kingdoms and Empires perfectly alone, delivering special gifts to her ten other aunts. There is a farmer aunt and a veterinarian aunt, a pair of aunts who captain a cruise ship together and an aunt who is 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 garbering suspicion that there might be something more to her extremely inconvenient quest than meers the eye ...
