“Lovely One: A Memoir Adapted for Young Adults” by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is now available, according to the Tri-State Defender. The book traces Brown Jackson’s journey from a curious child inspired by her family and her lawyer father to a history-making jurist. In a review of the book, the reporter says the new version takes time to show that Brown Jackson was just an ordinary kid once. “Playing, attending classes she loved and ones she disliked, traveling, spending time with her grandparents, getting a new sibling — these are experiences Jackson shares with young readers, and they’re very engaging. Her narrative, though it uses adult-level language, is easy to grasp and quite relatable for her audience, and her excitement at some of her life’s highlights is delightfully charming.”
