Ruby’s bravery and perseverance inspired children and adults alike to fight for equality and social justice.

In this chapter book biography by award-winning author Kekla Magoon, readers learn about the amazing life of Ruby Bridges - and how she persisted. Complete with an introduction from Chelsea Clinton!
