About Ruby and The Pen

What would you do if you could change the world with the stroke of a pen?

Ruby and the Pen is the story of a 12-year-old, cartoon-drawing girl who buys a pen from a mysterious market stall. The pen has a magical power: whatever she draws, happens! Initially the pen protects Ruby from the meanest girls at her new school, but over time the pen’s power becomes dangerous. Soon Ruby faces a difficult choice – the pen or her best friend.

As Ruby struggles to wean herself off the pen, she’s faced with problems galore. Can she foil her headmaster’s evil plan, and save an endangered species of bird in the process? More importantly, can she do this relying on her own talents and working as a team with her friends? Or will she succumb to the pen’s power?

Featuring hilarious illustrations, and with messages about bullying, teamwork and the environment, this is fast-paced, entertaining middle grade fiction that will resonate with kids everywhere. After all, who wouldn’t want to fix all of their problems with the stroke of a pen?

ABOUT THE CREATORS

David Lawrence started out as a financial analyst, but went from creating profit-and-loss statements to performing stand-up comedy and TV writing before penning his first book in 2007. Since then, he has written another 12 fun-filled children’s books aimed at engaging reluctant readers.

Cherie Dignam has always loved drawing and works in a variety of mediums. However, she is at her happiest with a good old-fashioned dip pen and ink.
