You said that if someone or something is putting you down, you get back up. My heart heard that, and I am trying to be more like you.Sincerely,OliviaMy dearest Olivia,I am so pleased you wrote to me, especially about standing up. I know all too well how scary it can be to stand up for yourself or even others. Just know it takes a courageous and brave person to stand up, even if you are afraid. It happens to us all!I am proud of you,Ruby BridgesThe students' letters and Ruby's responses are powerfully illustrated with dynamic and thought-provoking artwork by John Jay Cabuay.
