Before Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was the judge, she was a young Jewish girl growing up in Brooklyn, inspired by books, past female trailblazers, and her mother to make the world a better, more just place to be. So even when people turned her away — for being a girl and for being Jewish — she never stopped fighting for equal treatment for everyone by pushing back against unjust laws and the beliefs around them.
In this compelling book from the Ordinary People Change the World series, kids will learn how the traits Ginsburg learned as a child helped drive her through her incredible life. With cartoon-style illustrations, photos and timelines from Ginsburg's life, and an emphasis on Ginsburg's perseverance in the quest for justice and equity, this book is sure to inspire kids to find their own way to change the world.
