•           A gently humorous story about friendship and belonging that will appeal to any young child who feels they haven’t quite found their niche yet.

•           A talented new author teams up with the illustrator of the highly successful Don’t Think About Purple Elephants.

Patch the pony is lonely. He has fun with his young owner, Sam, and the other farm animals are friendly, but sometimes it feels as if he still doesn’t quite fit in. Then one day Sam has an idea and something happens that changes Patch’s life forever. Patch and Ruby is a wonderful, often very funny tale about friendship and finding out where you belong.
