A book you should read




Ok, now that i have this blogging thing down i can tell you a fabulous book title!  The book is "Love, Ruby Lavender" by Deb0rah Wiles.  It was my favorite book ever (i read it for my author study) and if you have not read it i highly recommend it!  Here is what it is about:

Ruby Lavender and Miss Eula are a pretty good team, for a couple of chicken thieves.  What other granddaughter-grandmother duo would drive the getaway car for chickens rescued from the slaughterhouse, or paint a whole house shell-shock pink?
But now Miss Eula has up and left for Hawaii to visit her new (smelly) grandbaby.  Poor Ruby.  Stuck in boring old Halleuia, Mississippi, with nothing to do except read to her chickens, sweep floors (torture),and be tormented by the curly-haired, tip-tapping Melba Jane.
But nine-year-old Ruby is in for some BIG surprises!


ps: i have put in a pic of the book and you can also read The Aurora County All-Stars(also by Deborah Wiles)
