Synopsis

Ruby Red Shoes is a white hare who lives in a prettily painted caravan with her grandmother. Ruby is gentle, cheerful and enchanting. She is a very aware hare and loves animals and people, trees and nature - not forgetting red shoes . . . She also loves to travel!

Ruby Red Shoes Goes to London is Kate Knapp''s third installment in the Ruby Red Shoes series, and features gorgeous full-colour illustrations. Discover more of Ruby''s adventures in Ruby Red Shoes: A Very Aware Hare and Ruby Red Shoes Goes to Paris.
