Ruby is a self motivated proto-entomologist who finds a very strange bug and in posting a picture on Twitter - which she has been forbidden to use, causes herself, her family, her friends, and her neighbors various difficulties and excitement. Not to mention government agents. Meanwhile Ruby's science teacher is trying to convince her to be less ambitious in her science project about bees. Ruby uses scientific methods to evaluate what she has observed - and the conclusions are both accurate and influenced by conspiracy theories. ( ) I read this work for Norton Award consideration, and I found it to be a fun read! Though it felt a bit slow to get going, I really loved Ruby, her family, and the tight-knit neighborhood children. There was a wonderful sense of community. The interstellar invasion delivered some nice surprises in the end, too.
The narrative is more than an absence of negatives. There are a lot of positives here as well: happy families, friends who actually like each other, even the odd helpful MIB. Result: an engaging adventure that well deserved its award. PremiosListas de sobresalientes
Eleven-year-old Ruby, a Black girl who loves studying insects, accidentally captures an alien bug, but when the creature escapes and starts wreaking havoc around the neighborhood, it is up to Ruby and her rag-tag group of friends to find this new invasive species before the feds do.
