The Beloved World of Sonia Sotomayor

Sonia Sotomayor invites listeners to learn about her journey to becoming the first Latina Supreme Court Justice of the United States in this middle-grade adaptation of her memoir, MY BELOVED WORLD. Sotomayor narrates the prologue of her captivating story in an inspiring voice full of determination.

Ortiz voices her beautifully, both in English and Spanish, in tones of resolve. As the book ends, Ortiz walks listeners through a glossary of Spanish words and a brief history of the Supreme Court before closing with a warm note about the author. V.T.
