Baby Ruby Bawled

Summary

Baby Ruby won't stop crying. Dad gives her a bath, Mum gives her a feed, Nana takes her for a drive and Grandad walks her around the garden. But Ruby keeps on bawling. At last her brother Theo has a go and sings her a special song he makes up. The whole family are so tired after all of this, they fall asleep - all except Ruby.

Reviews

  • This is a nicely-tuned unexpected ending to the story, and the strong, painterly illustrations are quite superb.
