专业书评 From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 2–Ruby has a great imagination and a full life with a job (selling lemonade), twins (mismatched dolls), a talk show (broadcast from inside a cardboard box), and a horrible neighbor. Bratty Hatty and her sidekick, Mean Maureen, exclude Ruby from their activities and bully her with rude comments. They make fun of her best buddy and pet bird, Bubbles, who cant fly. Ruby looses her confidence and joyful spirit until she realizes that the true value of friendship is not in perfection, but in sharing and caring about one another. Done in pencil, ink, and watercolors, the illustrations capture the girls exuberant and independent style, highlighting her dramatic fashion sense. Text and illustrations take the eye up, down, and across pages filled with color and movement. Black-and-white street scenes create textural patterns that contrast with Rubys colorful outfits. Suggest this book for sharing one-to-one as a lesson in friendship and bullies or as a fun story for youngsters who are into high drama and fashion.–Carolyn Janssen, Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, OH
