Synopsis

Meet Ruby. She's extremely rich and astonishingly lazy. She can't do anything for herself. She can't dress herself or brush her hair. She has someone to clean up after her, to do her homework and she is too lazy to even wipe her own backside after using the loo. (She calls her Nanny in to do that for her!)When her celebrity chef parents head off to attend a conference, Ruby is not impressed at being left behind yet again. Instead of staying at home with her two ponies, chocolate fountain, private rollercoasters and cinema sized plasma screen televisions to keep her occupied, Ruby is sent to stay with her cousins, the boring Bunsens.From the moment she arrives at Bunsen Cottage, however, it is clear Ruby's visit is going to be anything but dull ...A laugh out loud funny book by the author of DIARY OF A PENGUIN-NAPPER, Sally Harris.

À propos de l'auteur

SALLY HARRIS grew up in rural Australia and wrote her first book when she was in Grade 4 - it was a joke book, full of some seriously corny jokes. Since then she has barely stopped writing stories and while her taste in jokes may not have improved, she likes to think that her storytelling skills have. After graduating with a degree in Children's Literature, Sally has been busy writing and working as a primary teacher, in both Australia and the UK, where she has endless classes of children to test out her stories on. She now lives in Melbourne and when she's not writing, you can find her teaching, running long distances, drinking chai lattes, reading children's books and scouring the paper for unlikely news articles to turn into exciting fiction. She also bakes a mean gluten free cupcake and has never exploded her kitchen cooking any popping finger buns. Sally loves animals, including penguins, and if she can't have one of those as a pet, a dog would be the next best thing. Her first book, the chuckleworthy Diary of a Penguin-napper was released in November 2012. Ruby Marvellous is her second book and you'll love it just as much.
