Description
When Christmas is weird instead of wonderful-you can't just give up.
Twelve-year-old Ruby Tabeata and her older brother Ray are visiting their father in the artists' neighborhood of North Beach, San Francisco as Christmas approaches in 1958. What should be a glorious holiday turns sour as Ruby and Ray discover their father's growing addiction to alcohol.
When Ruby finds work at a popular bookstore near her dad's home, new friends and adventures distract her from worrying. Ruby's experiences lead her to a daring decision to get her dad to stop drinking-and a surprise that brings new meaning to her life. Read more about Ruby's Beat Generation family in The Beat on Ruby's Street and Fool's Errand.
-Gary Schwartz, author of The King of Average "Told in Ruby's voice, this inspiring addition to the Beat Street Series will transport you to one of the world's most magical cities during a fascinating moment in history."
-Elizabeth Sirimarco Budd, author of multiple books published by The Child's World, Marshall Cavendish, and others "This delightful book touches on tough subjects in a way middle-grade and young-adult readers can understand. Zark has added another must read to her series."
-Kandi J. Wyatt, best-selling author of Dragon's Future for middle graders and young adults
