Book Description
The last thing eleven-year-old Ruby Tabeata expected to happen on her way to a Jack Kerouac reading was to be hauled to the police station.It's 1958 and Ruby is the opposite of a 1950s stereotype: fierce, funny and strong willed, she is only just starting to chart her course in a family of Beat Generation artists in Greenwich Village. Ruby dreams of meeting famous poets while becoming one herself; instead, she's accused of trying to steal fruit from a local vendor and is forced to live in a children's home.
As Ruby struggles to return to family and friends, she learns her only choice is to follow her heart.
Join Ruby's journey as she finds unexpected friendships, the courage to rebel against unjust authority and the healing power of art.
