Mr Barnes, I must say that I am proud of my daughter who "represent" as she presented her poster board project today. My daughter spoke proud and told the story of Ruby and the Booker Boys. I was shocked when she told everyone that the author was "Derrick barnes" and the illustrator was "Vanessea Newton" She got a big clap from everyone. I thank God for your books because my daughter attends a all hispanic school. She started this school last year, she was the only black in her class. She claim she was nerves at first but between last year and this year my daughter is rocking that school. My daughter knows she is African American and proud of it, she goes to school with hair in braids and fancy clothing on dress-down day, she just loves how the kids make a fuss over her. Yes my daughter is very popular at her school. My daughter had to learn a way just like Ruby to find her place and she did just that! Stay Bless!

Mr. Barnes, Hello, again I text you about my 8 1/2 doing a poster board about Ruby at her book fair on Tuesday March 23. I was wondering how could I send pictures of her dressed up as Ruby Booker. I went through changes trying to dress her like Ruby! She fuss about being this character, I tried to get her to go with "Abby" from American Girl, my daughter said "no" do you know I am dealing with a Ruby Booker right in my house. Stay Blessed!!
