Ruby has a plan.Down the hill. Past Bernie's. Through the park. Nan's house.Easy… right?But today a cheeky magpie has other ideas, and Ruby keeps hearing a ping that doesn't make any sense. With her shiny spinner, her sharp noticing, and a very pushy seagull who thinks everything is a chip, Ruby discovers she's braver (and cleverer) than she feels.Down the Hill to Nan's is a funny, coastal Aussie Little Red Riding Hood retelling celebrating kids who notice the details, feel things deeply, and find their way through. Renee Conoulty is an Aussie author, narrator and independent publisher.In the mornings, she wrangles her two kids off to school (who are also Aussie authors and narrators). During the day, she supports children with disabilities to learn and helps run the school library. During the evening, she enjoys a rare quiet moment watching TV with her husband, amid the chirping of the budgies, yowling of the cat, barking of the dog and scratching of the rats and mice. Thank goodness the fish are quiet.Somewhere in between all these distractions, she writes sweet romance, women's fiction, beginner chapter books and picture books.
