“Her voice may not carry a tune, but it sings out for equality“.
I would use this book for a lesson on Courage, fairness, and persistence. I would first read aloud this book and discuss Ruth's challenges and how she stood up for whats right. I will then have students share a time they stood up for whats right. I will connect the book to social studies. To discuss civics, law, and government leaders. I will introduce the supreme court and what the word dissent means.
The book I dissent by Debbie Levy teaches children about Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Her life inspires children by showing courage, fairness, and persistence. Her story is engaging, relatable, and teaches kids to stand up for what‘s right and never give up.
“She works as hard as ever...she is a hero.“
I would use this book during women's history month and have children write a letter to Ruth asking her questions or sharing aspects of her story that resonate with them.
I believe that Ruth's story does offer meaning to children because her story can encourage children to always work towards their dreams and not let biases get in the way of their dreams. I think Ruth's story can also show children that not long ago women were not always welcomed in respected careers.

I Am Ruth Bader Ginsburg - has a gavel on the cover! This was a tough prompt to fill, so I turned to junior nonfiction. It's a cute, informative little book.
And that's August of #ISpyBingo done.

“Real change, enduring change, happens one step at a time.”
This book would link to teaching in the classroom by introducing students to concepts of justice, equality, and the impact of individuals in shaping society, encouraging them to think critically about these themes in their own lives.
This picture book, published in 2019, is a biography that explores the life and accomplishments of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a pioneering figure in the fight for gender equality and women's rights. Awarded the 2020 New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book, it highlights her legal battles against discrimination and her determination to ensure justice for all.
