Ruby and the Big Guy by Connie Landon
Regular price $12.99
When longtime Adirondack caretaker Bruce Landon had a stroke, it cost him his ability to speak—a condition known as aphasia. His daughter, Laura Landon Cook, couldn’t find a book to explain the communication disorder to her children, so she wrote her own. This illustrated book, told through the eyes of Ruby, Bruce’s yellow Labrador, helps grade-schoolers understand that even though people with aphasia may not be able to express themselves in words, they’re as smart, understanding, and loving as ever.
