Where in the World is Wales?: Journey to a New Land Ruth Langdon

Eight-year-old Ruth, one of ten adopted children, recounts the sudden disruption of her stable, predictable lifestyle in the suburban Los Angeles as the family relocates to a rural Welsh village.



Her first impressions and gradual integration into life in Wales are described in a humorous but informative way, giving details of farms, castles, historic houses, mines and caves which only an "insider" could relate.



As she finds herself accepted in her new country and culture, she begins to confront the limitations and frustrations of life as a wheelchair-user with a life-long physical disability, but is able to foresee a positive future supported by a loving family and the God in whom she trusts.
