"Inspirational reading--and much more. Katz, through the story of
Ruth Bader Ginsburg, has built the perfect how-to manual to be the
best that anyone can be: loyal to principles, open to compassion
and social justice, and fully devoted to your profession." --F.
Isabel Campoy, Award-winning author (isabelcampoy.com)
"Katz's ability to deftly present difficult issues like
anti-Semitism, sexism, and gender discrimination in an
age-appropriate way makes this book unique. By not papering over
these formidable obstacles, young readers will see that, while they
may encounter altogether different roadblocks, no path to greatness
is without them. A must-read for any young boy or girl who dreams
of doing big things." --Dave Keane, author of Who Wants A
Tortoise?, Sloppy Joe, and the Joe Sherlock: Kid Detective
series
"Readers will be engaged from the first page of this book about the
exemplary life of a woman who opened doors for a new generation of
law professionals. Her vision, persistence, and influence in the
interpretation of human conduct will permeate the courts into the
future." --Alma Flor Ada, award-winning author, speaker, and
educator (almaflorada.com)
"Susan has a wonderful ability to tackle hard topics like the
discrimination Ruth Bader Ginsburg faced during her life and career
and make them understandable to a young audience. Her
thought-provoking sidebars invite readers to put themselves in
Ruth's shoes and see the world through a wider lens. Bright
illustrations round out this inspiring look at an important woman
of our time." --Brandi Dougherty, New York Times best-selling
children's book author
