Inhaltsangabe

The story of a little girl so tiny that she fits into a handbag - by award-winning author Sally Gardner, part of her MAGICAL CHILDREN series.

Everyone expects Ruby Genie to have the same fantastic magical powers as her famous parents did, but Ruby can't do any magic at all - or so she thinks. Then she begins to get smaller . . . and smaller . . . and smaller.

With the help of Aunt Hat, the kindly conjuror who is hopeless at doing tricks, Ruby finds her own special brand of magic. This is a wonderfully funny adventure story, full of brilliant characters, who help Ruby discover that some of the best things come in small packages!
