Ruby's Rescue

Description

Ruby can't walk since her recent riding accident. Her family want to help her when all Ruby wants is to be part of the local bushfire rescue operation. Her wheelchair is great for getting about even if it leaves Ruby's toes cold! Discovering an injured possum, Ruby comes up with a plan to knit protective clothes for wildlife injured in the bushfire. With the whole village getting involved, Ruby discovers compassion and care are close to home, warming her right down to her toes!
