Product Information

I wanted to do so many things, that was almost my problem. There were a lot of jobs that I thought would be nice, maybe furniture or interior design or fabric design or ceramics, or making a film. There were just too many things that I wanted to do! I remember one day a friend telling me I should write down a story and illustrate it so somebody could see my ideas for a film or animation. So that’s what I did – and it turned into Clarice Bean, the picture book. Clarice Bean was actually written to become a film and became a book series. Then I wrote Charlie and Lola, and that seemed the simpler one to turn into a TV series. When Ruby was nearly five weeks old, there was an earthquake and the Fairbank house collapsed. [5] She was pulled out of the rubble by the housekeeper Mrs Digby, but it caused the beginning of her claustrophobia. Adaptational Wimp: While still a interesting guy, Clancy Crew isn't as cool as he is in the books Clarice Bean reads. Here, Clancy is often kidnapped and scared, and far from unflappable: he even flaps his arms when excited, worried, or agitated. Parental Obliviousness: Ruby's parents, Brant and Sabina, have absolutely no clue what's going on in their daughter's life.

Given Name Reveal: There are many of these in Book Six, where the names of LB, Hitch, the Count, the Australian, and Buzz are shown. They are also quite plot relevant.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. Ruby writes that she knows the Australian is working for the Count, who is working for someone else. The Count has betrayed that someone. She writes that this someone has a grand plan and wants to kill her. She knows that Lorelei also wants to kill her, and that LB killed Bradley Baker. Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy Ruby Redfort herself is pretty tomboyish being the rough and tough dominant one and refuses to wear anything frilly as stated in the first book while Clancy Crew is rather more on the feminine side being the timid and soft-hearted subservient one and even wore heart-shaped sunglasses that belonged to his sister Lulu in the second book.
