Children across America have questions, worries, and hopes. In Dear Ruby, Hear Our Hearts, they write to Ruby Bridges about things that matter to them, including bullying, racism, climate change, and violence. Ruby answers with the care and courage of someone who knows what it means to stand up when something is unfair.
This illustrated nonfiction book brings together children’s honest letters and Ruby’s thoughtful replies. Her words help young readers feel heard while showing that bravery can begin with speaking up, listening closely, and caring about others.
Warm, serious, and hopeful, this book invites you to think about your own voice and the kind of change children can help make.
