(3) 4-6 Ruby hasn't come to terms with her grandfather's death in a car accident last year, and now her beloved grandmother is leaving for the summer. But a new friend--not to mention Ruby's pet chickens--helps her finally accept her grandfather's loss. The combination of third-person narrative, letters, and newspaper columns adds depth to Wiles's endearing characters and dimension to this touching story of grief and forgiveness.
