Summary
Ruby’s Wish by Shirin Yim Bridges
Ruby dreams of a life beyond the one her parents want for her. Luckily, her wealthy grandfather wants more for Ruby too. So he hires a teacher to educate his many grandchildren; girls and boys alike. Ruby’s education leads her to write a poem that gains her grandfather’s attention and becomes a spark to ignite her future. Shirin Yim Bridges’ touching story is an excellent text for building reading comprehension skills focused on determining importance, making connections, making predictions, understanding text structure, and synthesizing.Teach with Ruby’s Wish by Shirin Yim Bridges
