Introducing a truly hilarious and one-of-a-kind new character: Magnificent Mabel!
Sometimes life isn't fair for Mabel Chase. Like for instance she doesn't have one SINGLE pet in her whole life. And ALL the people in her class are losing their baby teeth. And she doesn't EVEN have a sprinkler in her own garden. But none of that matters in the end... because Mabel is still MAGNIFICENT.
Three laugh-out-loud funny short stories, brilliantly illustrated throughout!
With perfectly-observed, child-friendly humour, highly-relatable themes in each story, an incredibly distinctive voice, and stylish illustrations, these books are perfect for early readers.
When Ruth's three children aren't sending footballs whizzing past her ears and persuading her that sweets are healthy, they're saying funny things that she scribbles down and turns into stories.
Ruth used to be a writer and sub-editor on national newspapers and glossy magazines, but she's much happier working from home as a freelance writer.
Julia Christians received her diploma in communications design at the University of Art in Brunswick, and after graduating, started working as a freelance graphic designer and illustrator. She lives in the deep dark forest of the Harz Mountains, Germany, with her husband, kids, and a pack of dogs.
