Ruby is unlike most little girls in old 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. You and your child will enjoy the astonishingly beautiful illustrations of traditional Chinese life. Highly recommended. For 4- 8 year old.
