Ruby's Wish by Shirin Yim Bridges
Ruby is unlike most little girls in China. Instead of aspiring to get married, Ruby is determined to attend university when she grows up, just like the boys in her family. Based upon the inspirational story of the author's grandmother and accompanied by richly detailed illustrations, Ruby's Wish is an engaging portrait of a young girl who strives for more and a family who reward her hard work and courage.| SKU | Unavailable |
