Ruby is a young Chinese girl who lives in a big house with her extended family, including over one hundred cousins. She loves attending her grandfather’s school and dreams of going to University even though girls are expected to marry. When her grandfather reads her poetry assignment: "Alas, bad luck to be born a girl; worse luck to be born into this house where only boys are card for," he gives Ruby reason to hope. Full-color art.
