Book review: Ruby and Rosie by Cindy Lee Upton

‘"Ruby and Rosie are two little sisters with no fixed abode, they live in a wagon and travel the road." And so this beautifully written charming children’s book continues.

The classic illustrations tell a tale of what happens one hot summer's day when the girls take their dog Penny out to play.

IgiSkillsbuild are a Cambridgeshire-based “not-for-profit” social enterprise who supported the Traveller community to produce the book and celebrate Traveller Heritage.

The accessible style and colourful images will appeal to Primary School age children and is a delightful way to introduce younger children to the Traveller lifestyle and culture.
