Joan Ruth Bader was born on March 15, 1933. Ruth’s parents, Nathan and Celia, taught their children about working hard. Mr. and Mrs. Bader instilled in their children a sense of pride for their freedom. After a tragic loss of their oldest child, Nathan and Celia pinned all their hopes on Ruth. Being a strong believer in women’s rights, Celia instilled in Ruth a value for education. Ruth invested in her studies and tried her hardest to be the best student. Even with the support, Ruth was carrying a large burden; her mother had cancer. Unfortunately, Celia died on Ruth’s graduation day. Although devastated, Ruth knew she needed to push forward. Attending Cornell, Ruth worked hard studying law. While there, Ruth met Marty Ginsburg. He prized her love for education and her willingness to work. Ruth said, “Marty was the first boy I ever knew who cared that I had a brain.”. With hard work, Ruth and Marty were accepted to Harvard. Before starting, they got married in 1954. Unfortunately, law school had to wait for the newlyweds. Having been sent into the military, Marty was transferred to Oklahoma. Ruth took on a job in the Social Security office. Unfortunately, Ruth had trouble fitting into her job. This did not improve when Ruth told her boss she was pregnant. Having her salary and rank lowered, Ruth was furious. About two years later, Marty and Ruth attended law school. Unfortunately, the couple was hit with another blow. They discovered that Marty had cancer. But with determination, Marty graduated law school. Because Ruth was younger than Marty and he was offered a job in New York City, Ruth was unable to finish her degree. But that did not stop Ruth from graduating from Columbia University. Unlike her initial dream, she landed a job as a clerk for a federal judge. Later, a door opened for Ruth to become a professor at Rutgers University in New Jersey. There, she was one of the first female law professors in America. Unfortunately her salary was lower than the men and the school could not give a clear answer why. Finally, there came a chance for Ruth to voice her opinions. In 1973, in the US Supreme Court, Ruth fought in front of justices on behalf of her client. She told the justices that now, women, along with men, were breadwinners. Ruth argued that there should be equal rights for women just like there was equal rights for men. Dazzling the courtroom with her “sheer force”, Ruth won the case! Ruth’s reputation went all the way to the oval office where newly elected Jimmy Carter appointed Ruth as a federal judge on a circuit court. Soon the Ginsburgs moved from New York City to Washington D.C. It was a change for Ruth but, with her fair personality, Ruth was the perfect fit. But she wanted more. An opening for a Supreme Court justice came when Bill Clinton became president. Hearing about Ruth and her impartial rulings, President Clinton knew she was the one for the job. In 1993, Ruth was sworn in as a Supreme Court justice. In 2013, Ruth was a justice for 20 years. Given the nickname “The Notorious RBG” , Ruth became known for her truth. In fact, her honesty was so famous that a popular saying about her was, “You can’t spell truth without Ruth”. Ruth was also known for being “tough as nails”. Ruth was charging the courtroom with her brute force. Even so, the legend went through a rough patch when Marty passed away. Even with this hurdle, Ruth pressed on. Unfortunately, the legend died from pancreatic cancer at age 87 on September 18, 2020. Even after her death, her legacy lives in the hearts of the people she helped and in minds of people who look up to her. Justice Ginsburg is known for being a headstrong heroine in the fight for human rights. To Ruth, all men and women truly are created equal. One of her most famous quotes was, “Fight for the things you believe in but do it in a way that will lead others to join you.” She definitely lived that.

This is sooo good

I want to read it because I'm reading the adult one.

I loved this book. Karana is such a strong young woman. She has that girly flare with the strength of a man. Could you imagine losing your family because your brother disobeyed? Then for him to turn and be killed by your future best friend? And you turn in rage and destroy your town that the men of your village built with their bare hands? You then suffer through the death of your best friend and capture his son? And, let's think here... could anyone here survive a tidal wave clinging to a slick rock wall? Even though we have the heart of lions and the pride of a dancing peafowl, I don't think any of us could have done it. But Karana did it. As she grew older and mature she became stronger, braver, and wiser. Her caution and creative abilities kept her alive on an island for 18 years. This is a story that will impact your life and make you want to really become like Karana. She is such a role model for all ages. What an amazing novel.

This is really good! If you feel like you can't understand the Bible for some reason (sometimes I can't) This is a great challenge and experiance learning and actually understanding God's word.

Kwame Alexander wrote a poem for his mom on Mother's Day. Grace Lin wrote her first story for an english story talent show. Thanhha Lai doesn't have much of her writing or belongings from being moved from Vietnam to the USA. But what do all of these authors have in common? Why, they were all kids! Read about how 26 authors and illustrators got into writing or drawing. Full of life stories and laughs, you won't regret reading this book. Happy reading!

In old houses, under the floor, live tiny people called Borrowers. The borrowers don't bother to make stuff like beds or spools of wool or safety pins. Instead, the Borrowers create their furniture using "borrowed" items from "human beans." There aren't many Borrowers left. One Borrower family, composed of three, lived in an old house in England. The father was called Pod, the mother Homily, and the child Arrietty. Arrietty isn't like other borrowers. She doesn't want to spend her entire life cooped up in a house, seeing the sky only through tiny glimpses through the grating. Arriety wants to live outside, under the blue sky. But girls are usually not allowed to go on borrowing trips through the house. After many days of asking, Pod finally gives in and allows Arietty to come. On the trip, Arrietty is seen by a human boy. He agrees to keep their secret, but what will happen when more people find out?
