Brings the Story of Ruth to Life

An excellent adaptation of the story of Ruth. Never have I grasped the truly impossible position of Ruth and the incredible journey she and Naomi must have had. I also learned a lot about the traditions and laws surrounding their situation. An excellent book for anyone of any age, but I think it might especially be enjoyed by young women. A wonderful retelling of a very inspiring story.
