Description
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is the 32nd hero in the New York Times bestselling picture book biography series for ages 5 to 9.
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.
This friendly, fun biography series inspired the PBS Kids TV show Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum. One great role model at a time, these books encourage kids to dream big.
Included in each book are:
A timeline of key events in the hero’s history Photos that bring the story more fully to life Comic-book-style illustrations that are irresistibly adorable Childhood moments that influenced the hero Facts that make great conversation-starters A virtue this person embodies: Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s perseverance to create justice and equality is highlighted.

The distinguished jurist stands tall as a role model. Not literally tall, of course--not only was she actually tiny but, as with all the other bobbleheaded caricatures in the "Ordinary People Change the World" series, Ginsburg, sporting huge eyeglasses on an outsize head over black judicial robes even in childhood, remains a doll-like figure in all of Eliopoulos' cartoon scenes. It's in the frank acknowledgment of the sexism and antisemitism she resolutely overcame as she went from reading about "real female heroes" to becoming one--and also the clear statement of how she so brilliantly applied the principle of "tikkun olam" ("repairing the world") in her career to the notion that women and men should have the same legal rights--that her stature comes clear. For all the brevity of his profile, Meltzer spares some attention for her private life, too ("This is Marty. He loved me, and he loved my brains. So I married him!"). Other judicial activists of the past and present, all identified and including the current crop of female Supreme Court justices, line up with a diversely hued and abled group of younger followers to pay tribute in final scenes. "Fight for the things you care about," as a typically savvy final quote has it, "but do it in a way that will lead others to join you." Quick and slick, but ably makes its case.
