Synopsis

Ruby the rabbit is eager to assist her mum during a supermarket trip. However, her enthusiasm leads to playful mishaps, from crunching crisp packets to rolling tins. The real challenge arises in the bakery aisle when Ruby spots a piggy-shaped cake and demands it immediately. As her determination escalates into a full-blown tantrum, onlookers can't help but watch in awe. Jill Murphy masterfully captures the humour and chaos of a toddler's meltdown in this delightful tale.
