Children are delighted that Ruby’s grandmother has gone to so much trouble and they are sharing this special, memorable moment together. ![]() You might think that the reader would be disappointed to find out that Ruby will be having tea with a member of the family instead of royalty but this isn’t so. On the yellow and green shuttered house is a banner reading Welcome to Tea at the Palace! “My princess!” responds a woman in a semi formal dress draped with costume jewelry and a tiny fake crown. Her parents drive her to a beautiful floral-lined path. Ruby wears her prettiest dress, a tiara, and carries a bouquet of flowers. The tension builds and builds until finally the day arrives. In spite of this relentless barrage of advice, Ruby excitedly shares her invitation with everyone she sees, the letter carrier, the soccer coach, the dance instructor, and more. “I hope you won’t interrupt when you have tea with the Queen.” “I hope you won’t shout when you have tea with the Queen.” This is reinforced when everyone she meets gives her advice on how to behave. So we are cleverly seduced into thinking Ruby is actually having Queen with her Royal Majesty Elizabeth II. If anyone has had experience drinking tea with the Queen, Sarah Ferguson would be one of them. ![]() |
