Ruby's Wish
by Shirin Yim
Unlike many little girls in old China, Ruby is determined to attend university when she grows up, just like the boys in her family. Based on the inspirational story of the author's grandmother, Ruby's Wish is an engaging portrait of a young girl's independent spirit and her courage to be different. Beautiful illustrations and a feisty heroine combine to make this biographical folktale resonate with a contemporary, girl-power audience.
