Becky Culpepper lives at 34 Rufus Street. You might be surprised to know that is her name, because most people think her name is Becky Brush-your-hair. But no matter how many people tell her, or how often, Becky never brushes her hair. One morning, just as Becky was leaving for school, her mum called, 'Becky! Brush your hair. Something terrible could happen!' This is the story of the something terrible that did. Sally Barton weaves a brush-with-disaster pony-tale of do's and do-knots in his tangled mess of a second installment of the terrible things that happen in Rufus Street.
