Independent, adventurous and courageous, Rose is an unforgettable Australian Girl.
It's 1900 ... and Rose lives with her family in a big house in Melbourne. She wants to play cricket and have adventures but Rose's conservative mother won't let her. Then young Aunt Alice, a feisty suffragette, moves in with them and everything changes, not only for Rose, but for the whole country.
