What is Ruby about?

Ruby is a teddy bear with a crooked nose, leopard-spot fur and a very unusual problem: she was made from the wrong material. Rejected by the toy factory, Ruby refuses to believe she is worthless. Together with other unwanted bears, she escapes and sets off to find a home where they will be loved. Along the way, Ruby discovers that being different is not a flaw at all. Perhaps the mark on her paw really does mean she is special.
