      Grades 1-3 In the wake of Ruth Bader Ginsburg's passing, many children may have questions about the life of this modern heroine. Structured for children reading on their own, short chapters include paragraphs with straightforward text and, in National Geographic style, plenty of accompanying photographs. Following an introductory chapter that sums up why Ginsburg is notable today, the rest of the biography takes a chronological look at her life, from her birth in Brooklyn, New York, and Jewish background to her role as the second woman to be appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court. Printed before Ginsburg's death, the text concludes with her legacy as a champion of women's rights. Numerous features make the book engaging, including sidebars (e.g., her "collar code"), related facts, terms and definitions, quotes, and a time line. The high-interest visuals continue in a "6 Cool Facts" section, a concluding quiz, and a picture glossary. A solid choice for biography assignments and understanding Ginsburg's impact on history and social justice.
