A Cover For Ruth (Glorious RBG)
I'm excited to post the cover for I Dissent, my picture book about Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a.k.a. Glorious RBG. The book is illustrated by Elizabeth Baddeley, and I love what she's done, so I'm putting the cover here as big as I can:Now, back to this "a.k.a. Glorious RBG" thing that I casually dropped there at the top of this post. I know, you know, we all know "Notorious RBG"--the Internet meme that started as a Tumblr that turned into a book. I enjoy "Notorious RBG." But "Notorious" isn't quite the moniker I'm going for in introducing RBG to children. I like . . . Glorious RBG! I'll be writing a series of posts about Glorious RBG--about Glorious, Adorious, Meritorious, So Curious, Not Furious (etc.) RBG between now and publication of I Dissent this fall. Starting soon.
