Ruth the kitten loves to climb everywhere on her farm, but one day she climbs all the way onto the roof and can't remember how to get down! In this picture book for children from three to six, Ruth learns that pushing through your fear to do something hard can make you stronger. With the support of her human family, Ruth finds that she can get help when she needs it - and she can help herself, too. Focused on themes of determination, self-efficacy, and trust, "Ruth on the Roof" is a book that children and adults can both appreciate (especially if you're fond of farms in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia...or unusually bold, black and white kittens).
