Praise for this book

"A charming and engaging tale about a toy mouse named Ruby who enjoys playing dress up with her stuffed friends. She imagines she is a cowboy, a fairy, a pirate, a ghost, and more. Children will delight in and relate to Ruby as she plays with her friends and realizes she can do anything and be anything she wants to be. The story is illustrated with realistic, softly colored, pencil drawings that give characters lifelike appeal. Young children with beloved stuffed friends will be drawn to this title." --School Library Journal
