Ruby Rogers: Get a Life!
Ruby's teacher asks Ruby and Yasmin to look after a new girl at school. Her name is Lauren, and it is not long before she manages to upset the uneasy equilibrium between the two best friends. Ruby resents the way Yasmin often waltzes off, leaving her to entertain the extremely shy Lauren. Meanwhile, back home Ruby is under pressure to accept Tiffany as brother Joe's girlfriend, not least because Holly seems to have got together with another boy. However, St Valentine's promises some fun events and an opportunity for a little Valentine card devilment to relieve Ruby from all this relationship stress and get back at Yasmin. Of course, things do not go exactly according to plan and Ruby soon finds herself in rather hot water . . .
Ruby Rogers is a Waste of Space
Ruby Rogers is about to turn ten. She wants to be a gangster when she grows up. This is a bubbly, funny perspective on the joys and hardships of being the youngest in a family and having a moody older brother and a bossy best friend.
Ruby Rogers: Yeah, Whatever ...
Ruby is determined to get her moody older brother Joe to fall for wonderful Holly. Despite her best efforts to engineer a number of promising situations for them, a series of unexpected setbacks and disasters thwart her efforts - some due to Joe's personality, some due to Holly's, some due to the sheer cussedness of the universe. At least Ruby can be assured of her best friend Yasmin's loyalty and devotion, especially now they've formed their own secret society. Or can she? Relationships! Why bother? With the knowledge that only a couple of full-blooded blazing rows with her best friend and brother can be in store, Ruby is tempted to retire to her tree house and live with her monkeys for the rest of her life.
Ruby Rogers is a Waste of Space
Ruby Rogers is about to turn ten. She wants to be a gangster when she grows up. She also wants nothing more than a tree house for her birthday. Problem is, there aren't any trees in her garden, and her family laugh off the idea. Ruby's furious, but then life takes a turn for the better when, through her best friend Yasmin, she meets Holly Helvellyn, a super-cool Gothic girl who's friends with Yasmin's older sister. It turns out Holly rather fancies Ruby's older brother Joe - the brooding artist in the sixth-form who has a strange habit of talking in newspaper headlines. One day Holly asks Ruby to steal something from Joe's bedroom for a joke, setting off a chain of events that culminate in some very unexpected but pleasant surprises . . .

Yasmin gets a nasty shock when someone sends her an anonymous email. Fortunately Holly Helvellyn, Goth teen idol and generally Miss Amazing (except for that miserable boyfriend she now drags around), is on hand to cheer Ruby up, but even she doesn't have the answers to everything. The truth will out eventually, though . . .
Ruby Rogers: In Your Dreams
It's just not fair! Ruby's family won't let her have a pet. Well, any decent pets, anyway. Her dad's got this awful cat allergy and her mum thinks it's cruel to leave a dog alone in the house all day. Ruby is furious - but determined. Then she meets Horatio, one of the kittens belonging to Yasmin's neighbour. It's love at first sight, and Ruby starts making plans for the arrival of the new secret family member . . .

And if she can't invite everyone, who's in and who's out? It'd have be kept a huge secret . . . What a nightmare! Ruby digs herself into ever deeper holes as she tries to keep everyone happy. Will she manage to pull it off with friendships and family relationships intact?

Ruby's off to the seaside with Mum, Dad and Mum's work friend Deb and her family.

It's a good job Dad wants to teach Ruby to swim, as it gives them both an escape from Sasha and her family. Well, it would be a good idea if he didn't almost drown her!
