Ruby wants to play, but Mum is busy, Dad is cooking and Gran is working on the computer. No one has time for her, so Ruby packs her bag and decides to leave. Suddenly, Mum notices that Ruby is missing and the family begin to panic! Where can she be? Spirals are the next step up from ZigZags and introduce children to longer stories. Each illustrated title tells an exciting tale which is divided into short chapters. Very new readers might tackle a chapter at a time, while more independent readers would be happy to read a complete story in one sitting.
