Ruby Red Shoes is a children's book character created by author and illustrator Kate Knapp. Ruby lives in a prettily painted caravan with her grandmother, Babushka Galina Galushka. Ruby is gentle and kind and cares for all living things.

Her days are spent tending to her vegetable patch, chatting to her chickens and enjoying the outdoors and sunshine.

Ruby is particularly partial to strawberry jam and peppermint tea. She is also rather fond of red shoes.
