I Dissent is a great book about the life of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Supreme Court Justice. When she grew up, girls were not expected to go to college and especially not become lawyers.

This is a book written by Chelsea Clinton about 13 amazing American women who made great contributions to the world.
This is a book another book written by Chelsea Clinton about 13 amazing International women who made great contributions to the world.
OK This is my latest and favorite title!
Turning Pages: My Life Story is
written by Sonia Sotomayor, Supreme Court Justice.
It talks about the role books played throughout her life.
As shown on the cover, the illustrator interspersed text within the pictures.
At literacy night at our school, I read the book aloud and then we did an art activity using the text of the constitution, an image of the Supreme Court,
an image of her face and an image of her in her judge's robes.
Here are some examples!
Let me just say, your blog is adorable! Too cute. Thank you for sharing these great books for Women's History Month. Jen :)
