Scram!
Clarice Bean Chapter Books Series
The exceptionordinary, effervescent Clarice Bean is back with her trademark heart and humour in this beautifully illustrated story by former Children’s Laureate Lauren Child – a delightful summer read for the entire family!
Nothing ever happens except for sometimes. And only on rare-ish occasions, which is hardly ever. There are times when even I can’t turn the nothing into more than it is. But there was one day in the holidays that began as a nothing day and then everything happened. Absolutely nearly everything.
The unforgettable Clarice Bean finds herself escaping the danger of boredom when she meets an actual real-life DOG who will NOT scram!

Lauren Child's best-selling chapter book series introduces feisty and lovable heroine Clarice Bean to a whole new audience.
Clarice is all-grown-up . . . Well, maybe not quite, but she goes to school now! These stories revisit Clarice's utterly mad family, and introduce Ruby Redfort, ace girl detective and star of Clarice's favourite books. Ruby is always going on exciting adventures, while all Clarice gets to do is go to the local shop on her own . . .
Note: The Clarice Bean Chapter Books feature the same beloved character as Lauren Child's Clarice Bean Picture Book series for younger readers.
