Watch Claire transform as potatoes appear behind her ears; her nose grows; her eyes turn square and her hair loses its curls. But Claire doesn't care ... until she ignores one final warning.

Claire knows best. She doesn't listen to warnings from her family. She doesn't wash behind her ears, she tells lies and she watches too much telly. What will become of her? Watch Claire transform as potatoes appear behind her ears; her nose grows; her eyes turn square and her hair loses its curls. But Claire doesn't care, until ...she ignores one final warning!

She is also author of The Robot Who Couldn't Cry, Hugh's Blue Day and The Teeny Weeny Walking Stick - all published by Hogs Back Books. Harriet Rowe is a graduate from Falmouth University and lives in London. This is her first children's picture book.
