INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Creech, Sharon

Ruby Holler

(2) 4-6 Twins Dallas and Florida, thirteen, have been placed in yet another foster home, the first to treat them kindly. Tiller and Sairy, who resemble the affectionate grandparents in Walk Two Moons, find their patience strained by the twins, whose lifetime of abuse has left them mischievous and lacking normal skills. Brief chapters, swift action, quirky characters, and a lively, kid-friendly voice all recommend this novel.
