The Little Blue Bridge Written by Brenda Maier & illustrated by Sonia Sánchez
In this twist on a classic tale, Ruby and her three brothers want to cross a little bridge to pick the delicious blueberries growing on the other side of the creek. A bully named Santiago demands a snack before allowing anyone to cross.

While busily building, the confident Ruby becomes a role model for Santiago, who slowly changes his attitude.
