Illustrated by: Anne Wilsdorf
Age Level: 6-9

Eight-year old Ruby experiences life with a contagious joie de vivre.

Ruby's life continues in the equally engaging Ruby Lu, Empress of Everything (2006).

Ruby Lu, Empress of Everything

Illustrated by: Anne Wilsdorf
Age Level: 6-9

Ruby Lu is an exuberant second grader who takes her responsibility to help her cousin transition from China to his new school in America. Unfortunately, it lands both children in summer school where Ruby remains daunted by a long book. The humor lies in the ordinary of a likeable, effusive child who just happens to be Chinese American.
