From the prize-winning author of Trash and Dog, Ribblestrop is sure the delight the most mischievous among us.
When your school’s motto is ‘
Life is dangerous ’, you know that anything can happen – and everything does!
There’s no school that’s quite like
Ribblestrop , complete with roofless dormitories, distracted teachers, and a perilous underground labyrinth. And then there are the
students ! You’ll meet
Sanchez , a Colombian gangster’s son hiding from kidnappers;
Millie , an excluded arsonist and self-confessed wild child;
Caspar , the landlady’s spoiled grandson; the helpful but hapless
Sam and his best friend
Ruskin , plus a handful of orphans from overseas who are just happy to have beds – even if they are located in a roofless part of the building…
‘Masterful knockabout humour….the book bulges with irreverent fun and incident.’
The Irish Times
‘Ribblestrop has the ‘crazy school’ appeal of
Hogwarts and the grim humour of
Lemony Snicket , and looks like a winner.’
The Independent
‘Ribblestrop is disgracefully dangerous high-octane fun of the highest order: an outrageous delight’
Philip Ardagh, in the Guardian
