Product Description
Product Description
Ruby wants a pet. She thinks it's very unfair that her older sister Jane is allowed a kitten for her birthday, especially when Jane refuses to let Ruby play with the kitten. So when she finds a very friendly-looking stone, she decides to adopt him as her pet. Jane thinks Ruby is being silly, but Ruby is pleased to discover that her new pet has some appealing characteristics - and she doesn't have to clean up any messes like Jane does! When the girls enter their pets in the school fete pet competition, there is a very surprising result.
From the Back Cover
"It's not fair," she said.
"I want one."
"I want one."
Ruby really wants a pet. Her big sister Jane got a kitten for her birthday but Mum and Dad say Ruby is too little to look after a pet yet.
So Ruby takes matters into her own hands, and finds herself a very special kind of pet - Rocky! And she enters Rocky into the pet competition at the fete to prove that pets can be - well, almost anything!
