Ages 8-12.
Eleven-year-old Ruby Danes has a real best friend for the first time ever, but agonizes over whether or not to tell her a secret she has never shared with anyone--that her mother has been in prison since Ruby was five--and over whether to express her anger to her mother.
Hiding the truth about her mother's imprisonment, Ruby befriends a new neighbor and worries that the girl will stop liking her when it is discovered that the friend's family has ties to the events that put Ruby's mother in jail.
