Ruby can do ANYTHING. She knows what she wants, and NOTHING is going to stop her – not a rainy day, a hard-to-reach treehouse or a pesky skateboard. Just you wait and see . . .

With expressive, retro illustrations from exciting new illustration talent Hazel Quintanilla, this empowering book celebrates strong girls the world over. Little ones will LOVE Ruby – the ultimate feisty role model to show young girls how to harness their voice and inner strength.

“There is so much for girls to enjoy in this book. Stereotypes are explored, considered, and shattered as readers  empathise with the splendidly anarchic central character . . . Parents and teachers will enjoy sharing this book with young children and will find the text invites conversations and important ideas.” – Jaki Brien, School Librarian Magazine Review.

said a little cub one morning.

“I want to be just like you.”

“One day you will,” said the mummy bear.

“But first we have memories to make,

before you are full-grown.”

This stunning book celebrates the joyful times spent with a little one, and how these precious memories strengthen the foundations of a happy, healthy child. With stunning illustrations by Frances Ives and a lovely, lyrical text.
