She teaches at the University of Stirling and writes children's books in her spare time.

But perhaps not thoroughly enough explored is what it means to be a witch thrust into a banal ordinary world in which shes not even allowed to cast spells. Enter the entertaining Ruby McCracken: Tragic Without Magic, by Elizabeth Ezra (Floris, £6.99)'<br />-- The Herald<br /><br />Ruby is an endearing, witty heroine whose frustrations... will resonate with young readers as much as her language does, and Ezra's sense of fun abounds in witchy details... A great fit for readers looking to move on from the Worst Witch or Wrigglesbottom Primary to something slightly spooky but not too scary.'<br />-- West Coast Review</p>
