What happens when kids find themselves in situations where adults are absent, and they need to come up with make-or-break decisions? Zig, who used to be everyone's favorite child video star, is now feeling some discomfort when her aunt wants to get her to be an actor for her school project. Tiara, a playful girl, has been given choices by a strange creature named Or. Curious Atoy ends up meeting two mysterious dinosaurs when he visits his grandparents' quaint abode. Ada, whom her friends tease as a giant, meets an unannounced visitor at their home that sends her young world upside down. Katrina, determined to buy a doll, still needs 75 cents, and contemplates talking to the grumpy cashier. And then there is Chris, a young man who lives in an isolated island, who aims to reach the Tall House but needs the right ladder to reach the top. An eclectic collection of stories that show children and pre-teens with different backgrounds and persuasion caught in a dilemma of confronting hard questions, The Right Ladder and Other Stories promises to bring you to different worlds and will also challenge your perception about making the right choices.
