The One and Only Ruby by Katherine Applegate
4.0
emotional reflective sad fast-paced

A lovely addition to this series featuring Ruby, our baby elephant. I loved learning about her back story and how she ended up alongside her uncles— Ivan & Bob. Ruby’s story had its sweet & funny moments, yet also contained real darkness of poaching and loss of a family member. 

I would recommend this series to readers of any age that want to read from the perspective of a beloved animal. The audiobooks for each were fantastic!
