Ruby's Pick

by Gretchen Griffith

Set in the beginning years of the twentieth century when families worked the farm together and a chantey in the fields eased the drudgery of picking peas in the summer heat, Ruby’s Pick begins with a family in the sweat of the fields. Ruby's sisters dream of chocolates and taffy and ribbons. Not Ruby. Her pick would last longer, cool better, and surprise even the great art critics of the world. This is a story of sisters as they accomplish the necessary, share in the bounty, and help Ruby bring home cooling oranges in a surprising way.
