Description

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor tells her own story for young readers for the very first time!As the first Latina Supreme Court Justice, Sonia Sotomayor has inspired young people around the world to reach for their dreams.

But what inspired her? For young Sonia, the answer was books! They were her mirrors, her maps, her friends, and her teachers.

They helped her to connect with her family in New York and in Puerto Rico, to deal with her diabetes diagnosis, to cope with her father's death, to uncover the secrets of the world, and to dream of a future for herself in which anything was possible. In Turning Pages, Justice Sotomayor shares that love of books with a new generation of readers, and inspires them to read and puzzle and dream for themselves.

Accompanied by Lulu Delacre's vibrant art, this story of the Justice's life shows readers that the world is full of promise and possibility--all they need to do is turn the page. Praise for Turning Pages:* "A sincere and insightful autobiography that also demonstrates the power of the written word.

A winning addition to libraries that serve young readers." --School Library Journal, starred review"A personal and appealing book made to inspire." --Booklist"A thoughtful introduction to both the power of reading and an inspiring role model." --Kirkus Reviews"This book would be great as a read-aloud for class discussions of the Supreme Court, or United States government, or of important people in public service.

It would also be good for independent reading by students interested in biographies or political figures." --School Library Connection
