Book #1 in the Ruby Lu series
Ruby's life is magical, until family challenges test her patience.
Ruby Lu loves her magical life, from performing backyard shows to visiting her grandparents. But when her brother reveals her secrets and her parents impose new rules, Ruby faces unexpected challenges. Can she navigate these hurdles and still find joy in her adventures? Join Ruby on her journey of discovery and see what makes her truly special.
Most days the best thing about being Ruby is everything. Like when she’s the star of her own backyard magic show. Or when she gives a talk at the school safety assembly on the benefits of reflective tape. Or when she rides the No. 3 bus all the way to Chinatown to visit GungGung and PohPoh. And then there are the days when it’s very hard to be Ruby. Like when her mom suggests Chinese school on Saturdays. Or when her little brother, Oscar, spills all of Ruby’s best magician secrets. Or when her parents don’t think she’s old enough to drive! Join Ruby Lu on her first adventure and discover your own best things about her!
