About this listen

From the prize-winning author of Trash and Dog, Ribblestrop is sure the delight the most mischievous among us.

When your school’s motto is ‘Life is dangerous’, you know that anything can happen - and everything does!

There’s no school that’s quite like Ribblestrop, complete with roofless dormitories, distracted teachers and a perilous underground labyrinth. And then there are the students! You’ll meet Sanchez, a Colombian gangster’s son hiding from kidnappers; Millie, an excluded arsonist and self-confessed wild child; Caspar, the landlady’s spoiled grandson; the helpful but hapless Sam and his best friend, Ruskin, plus a handful of orphans from overseas who are just happy to have beds - even if they are located in a roofless part of the building....

I just love Tom Hollander as a narrator and listen to everything he has recorded. The bonus is the cracking story, full of humour, wit and darkness which even a mature adult would appreciate.
I just wish Tom Hollander narrated more books soon.

Came for Tom Hollander's voice and stayed for good

A really enjoyable story. Laugh out loud funny at times but also deeply moving. Tom Hollander was the perfect choice as narrator. Loved it!

Wonderful story, brilliantly read

A wonderfully entertaining listen! The story follows a selection of misfit boys and one girl—at a struggling school, leading to a series of wild and amusing escapades. It’s often laugh-out-loud funny, though with a surprisingly dark edge at times that adds depth to the adventure. Tom Hollander’s narration is absolutely brilliant he brings each quirky character to life. I've already listened to book 2 and am trying not to listen to book 3 immediately!

Superb Story.
