Sonia Sotomayor is a Supreme Court Justice. She is the third woman and first Hispanic person to serve in that office. She faced obstacles on her way to becoming the woman she is today, but she was smart and figured out how to find help along the way.Miss K spent quite a bit of time reading this book over and over. I read it once she was finally finished with it. The thing I like about it is that it talks about Sonia's achievements, her hard work, and the way she overcame her feelings of insecurity and shyness to reach her dreams. Her life wasn't a bed of roses, but through her hard work, she was able to rise to the top of her class in school and attend Princeton university.This is one of many fantastic diverse books coming onto the market. It's about a strong woman that broke many glass ceilings. She is a great example to my own girls. I love the message that if you work hard toward your goals, you can make them come true.The other thing I like about this book is that it teaches kids about the justice system and about our government. There are info boxes and vocabulary words sprinkled throughout the book. it's a good read for a kid that enjoys nonfiction, or anyone interested in learning more about judges and government.
This was not only a very interesting story about Sonia Sotomayer but was an outstanding teaching tool in explaining words and verbal terms. It is filled with a vast amount of photos and illustrations with captions on each, explaining that particular picture. It will assist in widely developing a child's understanding and vocabulary. To further aid in education, it has a quiz at the end of the forty three pages of insight then an additional glossary at the end.This is highly recommended for ages 5 to 10 years.*I was sent this book in exchange for an honest review, of which I have given.
