Ribblestrop Series

Perfect for all mischievous readers aged 10+, this series is the best choice if you're looking for books about unique schools and all things unusual.

Ribblestrop is no ordinary school. It's got roofless dormitories, distracted teachers, and a perilous underground labyrinth. And then there are the students, from gangsters' children, arsonists and self-confessed wild children! But let's get into just some of the things that happen in this trilogy: we've got circus animals taking over the school, mad librarians to the rescue, ancient mysteries, secret tribes and a strange inspector whose only goal is to destroy the school once and for all. And that's only the tip of the iceberg...

The Independent once described this series as having 'the "crazy school" appeal of Hogwarts and the grim humour of Lemony Snicket,' and we absolutely cannot unsee it now!
