Description
A hopeful story about the things that make us unique.
Ruby the Rambunctious is about a little girl with lots of energy! But recently, she has been falling down a lot. When she runs, she falls; when she dances, she falls; when she picks something up, she often drops it. Everyone thinks she's a bit clumsy!
When Ruby is told she has a disability, her parents start treating her very differently. They never tell her off, even when she behaves badly... She draws on her dad's favourite painting... nothing, she puts her mum's tablet in the bath... nothing. Ruby just wants to be treated the same as her two brothers.
También disponible en español. (Also available in Spanish.)

About the Author
Teacher by career choice, José Carlos Andrés never managed to practice because theatre entered his life. He started writing theatre for children. He is fascinated by writing, because it allows him to create new worlds full of laughter and emotions. He has published theatre plays for children and families, a theatre guide, storytelling, theatre art and clowning for all ages, stories for picturebooks… He is the author, among others, of Adopting a Dinosaur, I'm a Zcary Vampire or The Journey of Captain Scaredy Cat. Lucía Serrano graduated in Fine Arts and later moved to Barcelona (Spain) where she currently resides. She is the author and illustrator of many books and has won several awards including the Princess of Éboli, Fund for Economic Culture award and Cuatrogatos in 2016.
