    Another great book. Suzy strawberry is my kids favourite character. All have a special place in the book. The meaning behind the stories is great for helping kids talk without" How's your did been". This author really knows how to connect with her readers.

    I bought this book for my granddaughter who absolutely loved it. She has been asking when the next book will be available.

  • Sammi

    Absolutely wonderful children’s story. My daughter loves this story so much. Her favourite book every night before bed. 5 stars ⭐️

  • Sandy Mansfield

    I brought this to read to my grandson. It is not often these days that you can find a children’s book which helps a child to learn to be a caring person. This book does it in abundance as well as being educational and fun. My grandson runs in carrying the book every morning so we can enjoy reading it together. Wonderful!

  • Pinky Parker

    I was thrilled to listen to my grandson reading this. He is only 7 and struggles with reading. However, with help, he wanted to read it to the end. Later in the day I heard him listing fruit and vegetables and giving them other names - when he got to J he came up with jackfruit, which made me laugh! Educational as well as fun to read! Lovely book and recommended!

  • Caley Clark

    The book has beautiful pictures the kids found really funny. They connected with the cheekiness of the characters and related to them! My daughter took the book to school for show and tell and the kids really loved it too! Really lovely family book to enjoy - can’t wait for more to come!

  • Paul

    What a wonderful book. It is so well written and brings back the Innocence of childhood that has been sadly missing for so long. Can't wait for the next in the series! Thank you Ruby!!

  • Sam

    What a great, refreshing story for children.
    My seven kids loved it and jumping for joy every time I turned a page.

  • Netnoo

    I read this to my young niece and she loved it, the pages and illustrations are bright and colourful and kept her attention. It is easy to follow and not to long either.

  • Vittoria Healey

    When we received our copy of this delightful book our first reaction was WOW ! The presentation, illustrations and colours are very striking and appealing. So wonderful to see a children's story book which is wholesome. My two little grand-daughters love it and they are both under 3 years old. So much children can enjoy and learn within its pages. Children have a natural interest in nature and this book introduces them to so many fun adventures. Thank you Ruby for presenting your lovely book to the world !

  • Andrea Hyatt
