A Zarin Book Recommendation - make your voice heard!

Naomi and her parents highly recommend this book! Ruby Mae Has Something to Say, by David Small. It's a picture book aimed at ages 4-9, but the message works at any level. Here's the first page: The town of Nada, Texas was small. You could stand on one side of town, whisper something, and be heard on the other side. It was that small. Still, Nada had a few things in it. There was a general store, an abandoned train depot, a three-legged dog, and the World Headquarters for Universal Peace and Understanding. (See if they sell it at your local library here).
