[1] She was the middle child of three daughters. She changed her first name from Helen to Lauren when she was a child. [7] She attended St John's School and, from 16, Marlborough College. [8] She studied Art briefly at Manchester Polytechnic and later at City and Guilds of London Art School. [9] She started her own company, Chandeliers for the People, making lampshades. Between 1998 and 2003 she worked for the design agency Big Fish and includes its founder Perry Haydn Taylor in the dedications of her books. [10] Parental Obliviousness: Ruby's parents, Brant and Sabina, have absolutely no clue what's going on in their daughter's life. The latest Ruby Redfort adventure features Child’s trademark wit, with clever allusions to popular culture, gentle digs at out-of-it parents, and a complex yet accessible plot.”—BooklistThe Ruby Redfort series is your first series for older children rather than picture led books. But when you write the Ruby Redfort books do you picture each scene in your head ( or even draw it) before you write it?

When I read Ruby Redfort, I really think about how she is a really, really good character as she’s brave, she’s popular and clever Have you already planned how the Ruby Redfort series will end; do you already know the final sentence of the last book? Chekhov's Gun: Many things, usually the items that Ruby steals/appropriates from the Spectrum gadget lab.Lauren Child: New Children's Laureate worried about equality in books". BBC News. 7 June 2017 . Retrieved 7 June 2017. I wanted to do so many things, that was almost my problem. There were a lot of jobs that I thought would be nice, maybe furniture or interior design or fabric design or ceramics, or making a film. There were just too many things that I wanted to do! I remember one day a friend telling me I should write down a story and illustrate it so somebody could see my ideas for a film or animation. So that’s what I did – and it turned into Clarice Bean, the picture book. Clarice Bean was actually written to become a film and became a book series. Then I wrote Charlie and Lola, and that seemed the simpler one to turn into a TV series.
