Lucky broken girl / Ruth Behar.
Ruthie Mizrahi hasn't lived in America long, but it's finally starting to feel like home. In the months since she's arrived from Cuba, she's begun mastering English, has her first pair of go-go boots, and is her neighborhood's hopscotch queen. Then one night everything changes when Ruthie's in a car accident. Is she really going to have to lie in bed in a body cast for months? At first Ruthie feels like a baby in diapers again. But then some surprising things happen. All kinds of interesting people walk through her door, bringing stories and gifts that help make her feel less alone and afraid. Full of color and light, humor and hope, Ruth Behar's sparkling debut celebrates our beautifully diverse world and shows how friends, neighbors, books, and art can sweeten even the worst days.
