Ruby Red by Kerstin Gier

If you could ask the author/illustrator of this book one question, what would it be?


I would ask the author why she choose to have Gwen's(main character) cousin Charlotte be such a stuck up brat. After all they are family and the fact that though out the book Charlotte goes out of her way to make Gwen's life miserable is kind of sad. In one part of the book Charlotte even spread a rumor that Gwen was using anorexicia, which is a pill that makes you have a loss of appetite so that you can lose weight. Charlotte claimed the reason that Gwen used this pill was that so she could be as skinny as Charlotte.
