Yes, in a way I did because she was originally written as Clarice Bean’s hero and I very much wanted to write about a character like that, who would inspire Clarice. Hidden Depths: Sabina and Brant are quite stupid, yes, but in Book 2 Ruby admits they are no pushovers. Sabina punches a pirate who tries to steal from her, and she and Brant survive the ordeal. Ruby writes that she doesn't know why to all of the above, and also where her mother's snake earrings are, which her mother lost. I wish I did but I can genuinely say that I don’t know what the ending will be yet. I’m not really one of those writers who can plan out the whole series. Ruby Redfort is a book series written by Lauren Child ( of Charlie and Lola fame), and follows the adventures of Teen Superspy Action Girl Ruby Redfort.

Disney characters can have some simple and easy-to-copy outfits, and most of them are based on books. Card-Carrying Villain: The Count, most definitely. His entire aesthetic screams evil movie villain, and what's more- that's 100 percent intentional. She went over to the counter where Sal was chatting to Danny Jupiter. Del would be annoyed to miss him, she had a thing about Danny Jupiter.

And Now for Someone Completely Different: Quite often, chapters of Ruby-centric action will be intercut with sometimes seemingly unrelated scenes set elsewhere. These scenes tend to have some impact on the story as a whole, and usually are about what the villains are/were doing, though the first time reader won't know who the characters are yet. Battle Butler: Hitch is undercover as the Redfort's insanely capable 'house manager.' The trope is downplayed in that with he's doing the 'battle' part of the trope, he's usual in spy mode. Chekhov's Classroom: In book One, one of Ruby's classes gives her information about the Jade Buddha that helps her figure out what Lopez had discovered. It's a little justified considering that the Jade Buddha coming to Twinford is a significant event for the town, so it makes sense that it came up in class.

Ruby is on her way to Penny Books, feeling like a quiet day, when she spots Del Lasco and Vapona Begwell having an argument. Ruby grabs Del and runs with her into an alley, where they climb into a dumpster to hide from Vapona and her gang. That’s interesting. Sometimes music can be too interfering if it has lyrics.

I probably never would do it. Kindly Housekeeper: Mrs. Digby is a tough version of one. She loves the Redforts, but won't mind calling them out. Child introduced Charlie and Lola in 2000 with I Will Not Ever Never Eat A Tomato and won the annual Kate Greenaway Medal from the Library Association for the year's most "distinguished illustration in a book for children". [3] For the 50th anniversary of the Medal (1955–2005), a panel named it one of the top ten winning works, which comprised the shortlist for a public vote for the nation's favourite.
