This is a
book to be read to children. It is about a little girl called Ruby Rose who was
abandoned in the forest by cruel and neglectful parents and left for dead. Luckily,
she was found by seven fairy godsisters who took her home and nurtured her back to good
health. A childless king and queen, hearing of the abandoned child, eagerly bring
her to live with them and shower her with opulence and plenty. The new parents,
amazed by their good fortune, are surprised to find that their beautiful princess has a
rather surprising habit of stretching the truth. In fact, she tells the most
outrageous of lies. But why? The tale reflects the joys and pitfalls of adopting or fostering a child with a history of early trauma. It is accompanied by a parenting guide which provides practical step-by-step help in assisting families to work through their child's negative behavior to achieve more positive ones. |
