Millie is a smart and cheerful girl. She is quick-witted and witty and often amuses loved ones with her puns. When Millie is asked how she manages to come up with funny lines so quickly, she giggles and shrugs: it's not like explaining that her mind is arranged like a dictionary or an encyclopedia.
Mary loves flowers. With the help of a small wooden press, she dries them and preserves them for her herbarium. Grandma taught Mary to use old heavy books for this — in order not to damage the pages, you can cover them with thin wrapping paper.
Artist Josephine loves rainbows and bright colors. She uses paints to express her emotions and impressions. To some viewers, her work seems too innovative, but she just loves to draw: this calms her violent temper. Josephine wants to master art therapy and help children in hospitals express their thoughts, feelings and fears.
Katie loves climbing trees, inhaling the smell of bark and leaves and dreaming while swinging her legs in the air.
Nancy is the most loyal friend in the world. She is kind, cheerful and attentive to others. She loves pajamas and, if it were possible, would only wear them. Nancy has a light hand, and she is proud that she can throw the ball further than any of the boys she knows. She "throws like a girl", and these are not offensive words, but a compliment.
Jess is the captain of the football team, and her speed and endurance allow her to play as a striker. She doesn't miss a single opportunity to kick the ball and hopes that one day she will play for Australia in the Young Matilda team.
Celia loves to dance. From the first steps of her childhood, she dreamed of ballet: she jumped around the living room, pirouetted on the way to the dining table and put on pointe shoes at every opportunity. Her favorite ballet is Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake, and she hopes someday to play the role of the beautiful Odette.
Mime Hammonds tries to transform as many details as possible, including shoes: she makes ballet flats out of high-heeled shoes.
Each doll turns out to be different from the others.
