New Juvenile Chapter Book Review: Ruby Lu, star of the show

By Lenore Look

Call Number: J LOOK, L

Pages: 136

Grades 1-3



Ruby Lu is back and starting the 3rd grade! In the latest of the Ruby Lu series, we follow Ruby as she deals not only with the changes of starting a new school year but with the changes that come when her father loses his job. Her cousin, Flying Duck, who communicates through Chinese sign language, her brother Oscar, dog Elvis, and neighborhood friends as usual, are always there to help her get through these changes.



When Ruby realizes how desperately the family needs extra money, she and her friends come up with some ideas that can save the family. Though Ruby has the best of intentions, some of these schemes are more troublesome than helpful and produce hilarious results. The author takes a realistic look at a family struggling with a job loss and treats it with humor, sensitivity, and a lightheartedness that keeps the story uplifting. Ruby is charming and entertaining and the cartoonish illustrations add humor to the text.



As a Chinese American who grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area, I love reading the Chinese words, phrases, and cultural references that are sprinkled throughout the books and would have enjoyed reading a series with a character like Ruby Lu when I was a girl.

Ruby Lu, brave and true



Ruby Lu, empress of everything

The students at my school have an obsession with Cool Math games that I don't quite understand. I guess it's the colors, that annoying cursor, and all of the ads that irritate me so I personally never really gave this site much credit. Also, most of the games I see students playing on Cool Math don't seem educational to me (from a glance). Now that it’s summer and I have more personal time, I may peruse it a bit and hopefully I can find the educational value in it as my students and you have!

I like your work. Teachers set of tests, exams, answers, assignments, grading for comparison with previous results. Need to know the assessment and report on the study and conduct of individual students to parents to see that there is a solution. Each school year, teachers establish rules and routines, do the best in school. When other classes absent teacher, the teacher is responsible for helping other teachers. Supervision of students during lunch and leisure. Supervise students to do a special test that checks periodically semester of school. Perform other administrative tasks. Attend meetings, conferences and educational activities for students and vocational coordinate internship programs with schools to help them craft oriented.!
