Copyright 2018 School Library Journal.PreS-Gr 2â Master Willow's School for Ninjas is open only one weekend per year, at a remote locationâa steep, craggy hill far from the busy roads of a village. New "saplings," boys and girls, arrive at the school to learn how to "sneak, slither, creepinvisibly , jump, kick, and throwskillfully , sit, listen, and waitpatiently ," how to be brave, and (most of all) discover their own individual secret skill. Ruby finds herself lackingâshe doesn't feel she's good at being invisible, skillful, or even patient, but Master Willow strongly believes that every sapling has a special talent. Practicing the ways of the ninja allows her to find and develop her own creative skills as she bravely comforts and supports her fellow saplings-in-training navigate the separation from home to school with a gift of friendship. Additional how-to pages on making aDragon Softie or aNo-Sew Dragon complete Ruby's story.VERDICT A recommended general purchase suitable for young readers finding their own special skills.âMary Elam, Learning Media Services, Plano ISD, TX
