Bindi Irwin

17-year-old Bindi Irwin is an international award-winning wildlife conservationist and celebrity who has inherited her father's passion for wildlife and wild places. Born to Wildlife Warriors Steve and Terri Irwin, Bindi was quite literally born on television! In 2007, Bindi launched her clothing range, Bindi Wear International, in Las Vegas, and that same year she was awarded two Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards, Fave Aussie and Biggest Greenie. Also in 2005, Bindi launched her very own TV show, Bindi the Jungle Girl. Bindi won an Emmy in 2008 and was nominated for an Emmy again in 2009. Bindi has co-created a range of books called Bindi Wildlife Adventures which have been launched in Australia, New Zealand in 2010 and the US in 2011. Released early 2010, Bindi played the lead-role in her first full-length feature film, Free Willy: Escape from Pirate's Cove and starred in her first cinema release film Return to Nim's Island in 2013! Bindi has dedicated her life to wildlife conservation and inspiring the next generation to make a difference in the world. She is a strong believer in kid empowerment and looks forward to spreading this message through her international filming work.

Bindi stared into the shop window, paying close attention to a gorgeous multicolored shoulder bag. Check out that bag, Mum, she said enthusiastically. It’s so pretty!

Robert wasn’t too far away, staring with undisguised admiration at a toy shop, which had boxes and boxes of remote-controlled dinosaurs just waiting to be bought.

Mum, look at the velociraptor! he said awestruck. It looks so real.

Bindi was now peering closely at the price tag on the bag, looking worried.
