Filled with humor, poignancy, cookies, and treasure maps, Newbery Medal winner Sharon Creechs Ruby Holler is a delightful book about a special place where its never too late to be loved. Dallas and Florida have been shuffled between foster families and orphanages all their lives, longing only for a loving place to call home. Tiller and Sairy, an eccentric older couple whose children are grown and gone, are restless for one more big adventure in life. Ruby Holler is the beautiful, mysterious place that changes all their lives forever. When Tiller and Sairy invite the twins to stay with them and accompany them on their adventures, the magic of the Holler takes over, and the two kids begin to think that maybe, just maybe the old folks arent so bad. . . .
