Publisher Description

Lee sobre la magistrada de la Corte Suprema, Sonia Sotomayor, quien se encuentra entre los héroes hispanos y latinos más innovadores e icónicos que han dado forma a nuestra cultura y al mundo en esta apasionante biografía escrita por Claudia Romo Edelman y Nathalie Alonso con ilustraciones en blanco y negro por Alexadra Beguez, perfecta para los fanáticos de la serie ¿Quién fue?

Conoce a la magistrada de la Corte Suprema Sonia Sotomayor—que una vez fue simplemente una niña criándose en el Bronx, Nueva York, con su hermano y sus padres puertorriqueños. Desde temprana edad, su madre le inculcó el valor de la educación y, con el tiempo, Sonia se graduaría summa cum laude de la Universidad de Princeton, recibiría un doctorado en Derecho de la Universidad de Yale y comenzaría a trabajar como asistente de fiscal de distrito del Condado de Nueva York. A través de su carrera de varias décadas, a Sonia Sotomayor la ha impulsado su compromiso con la justicia, a la vez que ha inspirado a los jóvenes a seguir sus sueños y luchar por hacerlos realidad.

Hispanic Star celebra con orgullo a los héroes latinos e hispanos que han hecho grandes contribuciones a la cultura estadounidense y representan una fuerza indiscutible para labrar su futuro. Si puedes verlo, puedes serlo.
