Brave Little Ruby
by Shannen Yauger
A good book encouraging bravery
My daughter loves this book! She loves how brave she is and wants to be bold like Ruby. I love that it brings this true story to life for my daughter at such a young age and gives her someone to look up to.
Great age appropriate way to learn about segregation!
We really enjoyed this book. It told the story of Ruby thoroughly, hitting on the hard stuff, while still being and uplifting and encouraging book. It led the way to some great family discussions!
Inspiring Bravery
My 1st grader just read “Ruby” and she loved it! As a mixed race child she had so many questions about what segregation meant and why it happened…. A great and inspiring book for young readers
A favorite!
My 8yo will read this story over and over again.
Cute book, based on a real life story
My daughter loves this book.
