Ruvim writes the following about Out of the Dust (Newbery Medal Book) :

Out of the Dust is a very good book. In the book a lot of accidents happend. One of them was that Billie Jo got burned. Billie Jo is a long leged girl. Her ma and her baby brother, Franklin died becouse of the accident. Next are the strenths and weeknesses of this book. One of the strenths is that Billie Jo & her dad are discribed reall well. another strenth is that the dustbowl are discribed reall well. One of the weeknesses is that the setting isnt discribed that good. Another weeknes is that ma & Franklin arent discribed. I recomend this book to anybody. Its a very good book. It is the best book I ever read. You got to read it!
