what do you really know about this Disney Show ?
i won't bore you with numbers and facts ! i'll simply tell you where it came from .
A really long time ago . a poor family lost their only daughter in a deserted forest !
There were no predators in this forest. simply rodents , insects and plants .
since there were a lot of plants she had no trouble finding food .
But she was all alone ! all the time !
she was left to face the brutal darkness of the night by herself !
she was just a little girl !
a little girl named Brandy !
a little girl who saw the rich girls walk around with the prettiest clothes , mocking her for he poverty .
a girl who always wished for wealth .
a little girl who needed a friend to end her loneliness in this empty forest .
her prize possession was a notebook . She carried it around everywhere with a few crayons .
she took it with her to the forest .
As she grew , she started hallucinating .
she went crazy out of loneliness !
she first imagined herself as a dog , in order to fit in in her environment .
Then she imagined a friend to keep her company and to entertain her .
then she made up a whole society of all kinds of talking animals .
a society where she was the girl with the prettiest clothes .
a society where she was popular and rich.
she also imagined a tree-house that resembles her old house .
Brandy drew her hallucinations and her imaginary adventures in her notebook .
She died at the age of 18 .
how she died ? she fell into a river and she couldn't swim .
her imaginary friends couldn't help her .
Years later a little boy belonging to a rich family got lost in that same forest .
when he was found , a notebook was in his hands .
the child was looking with fascination at the images .
his father , who's a writer for Disney channel saw his child's interest in the drawings .
he decided to make them into a program for kids .
every episode is inspired by the pictures drawn by the Real Brandy .
they knew her name was Brandy because it was written in the notebook .
they only changed her last name .
