	Additional Information


	While on a visit to her cousin’s home, Emma overhears a conversation in which others describe her as selfish and uncaring. Feeling misunderstood, Emma twists the ruby ring on her finger and wishes she could prove these opinions wrong. Emma dozes off, and when she wakes up, she finds she is no longer at her cousin’s house. The magical ring has transported her to 19th-century Ireland during the time of the potato famine. At the gates of an Irish workhouse a starving mob clamors for admittance, and Emma’s adventure begins. With her two new friends, Sally and Maria, she journeys to Moylough Castle, where she must unravel a mystery — and fulfill the wish that she has made. She discovers the secrets within the castle’s ancient walls and is forced to use all her strength and intelligence to prevent her companions from being banished to the New World.
