Thanks K. Fenimore for the tip on the book Ruby's Wish by Shirin Yim Bridges. What impressed me most about the story was that it was inspired by the life of the author's grandmother. (A true insite into the Chinese culture.) It's a story of a young girl's wish to have the same opportunities as her brothers- including a university education! Ruby's gentle manner, and her determination helped her to succeed. I highly recommend this book for it's beautiful illustrations and motivating story.[Edit by="bsmith on Jan 14, 10:54:49 PM"][/Edit]
