Join us in welcoming U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to celebrate the release of her two new children's books, TURNING PAGES: My Life Story and THE BELOVED WORLD OF SONIA SOTOMAYOR. Sotomayor will discuss her life story, from her birthplace in the South Bronx through her journey to become the first Hispanic and third woman appointed to the Supreme Court. Her picture book TURNING PAGES, vibrantly illustrated by Lulu Delacre, shares how Sotomayor's life was shaped and propelled forward by her family, her own determination, and the books she read. THE BELOVED WORLD OF SONIA SOTOMAYOR is the middle grade adaptation of My Beloved World, her #1 New York Times-bestselling memoir. In sharing her own story, Sotomayor encourages children to read widely and dream big.
Sotomayor will be in conversation with Eloise Pasachoff, Professor of Law, Georgetown University. Ticketing options include the purchase of a book and ticket or a ticket only. Sonia Sotoymayor will sign books after her presentation. Attendees must have a copy of either TURNING PAGES, PASANDO PAGINAS, or THE BELOVED WORLD OF SONIA SOTOMAYOR in order to enter the signing line.
