still struggles to exist within a family that has never fully

that she tries to hide in an effort to appear okay. Leah Klein's
life as she knew it ended the day she was taken, thrust into a
world of abuse and fear by a disturbed captor - 'Mother,' as she
insists on being called. Ten years later, any recollections of her

to escape, Mia's headaches grow worse. Soon, both sisters will
discover that their fates are linked in ways they never realised.

A Mysterious Girl Puts the Future of a Kingdom in the Balance
One icy-cold winter night, everything changes: a young girl shows
up at the king and new queen's castle doorstep wearing little more
than a purple jacket and carrying a black pouch. The king
recognizes the mystery girl's identity as the long-lost princess
without her uttering even a single word. However, the new queen
refuses to believe the king's claims. In turn, a devious plan is
hatched... and, the results are quite fitting
This new twist on Hans Christen Andersen's "The Princess and the
Pea" is surely to be loved by all fairy tale enthusiasts. "The
Princess and the Ruby: An Autism Fairy Tale" adds to much-needed
age-appropriate literature for girls with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Both fun and education are cleverly weaved in this magical tale,
teaching children to be comfortable in their own skin and to
respect the differences of others.
Acclaim for The Princess and the Ruby
"As someone who has a couple of friends with Autistic kids, I
understand the challenges these families have. This modern day
twist on The Princess and the Pea not only shows how others judge
something they do not understand, but how someone with Autism can
see, feel and do things one might not expect."
--V.S. Grenier, "Mom's Choice" Silver Honoree and award-winning
author
""The Princess and the Ruby" is a heartwarming narrative; a tale
that beautifully depicts several unique characterizations of Autism
Spectrum Disorder. Jewel Kats has refreshingly shed light upon a
daily struggle to redefine 'normalized behaviors', in an admirable
effort to gain societal acceptance and respect."
--Vanessa De Castro, Primary Residential Counselor with Autistic
Youth
