    techfashion0315's book review was featured in Who Is Sonia Sotomayor? (Who Was?).
    I love this book so much. Sonia Sotomayor was born in the Bronx to Juan and Celina Sotomayor, who were immigrants from Puerto Rico. Th Sotomayors worked hard to provide for their growing family. Sonia's parents worked at factories and hospitals. Her family was sweet, happy, and generous family. Sonia's family did not have it all good though. Her father lost his job, so Celina had to pick up extra shifts to provide for her family. Also, Sonia became a diabetic at a young age. This made her have to take responsibility for her diabetes, meaning she would have to inject herself with insulin because her mother was unable because of her work. As Sonia grew up, she began to pursue a carrier in law. She was familiar with this subject because of the many Nancy Drews she read and the many episodes of Perry Mason she watched on TV. In this book she is described as a legend. And she really is. She worked beside many famous lawyers including Ruth Badger Ginsburg. She lived life to its fullest because she never knew when her illness would get the best of her. Through it all, Sonia stood tall and became the first Latina US Supreme Court justice. She was not afraid to get her hands dirty, even if meant putting her life in jeopardy. I suggest this for the world's next Supreme Justices and people fascinated with judges, lawyers, and amazing people.

    I read both the original one and the adapted one, and both were great. This book is about Laura Ingalls's beloved Ma when Ma was a little girl. The series follows her life from a little child to a young adult. I suggest this for people who like historical fiction, "The Little House series", and beloved "Ma". I am sure that you will fall in love with Caroline and her family. This book is a mixture of home, polite humor, and the importance of family!

    This one was my favorite Caroline book. It was so exciting, slightly humorous, and homey. Caroline's mother finally remarries to a man name Mr. Holebrook. Caroline and her siblings all try to get use to him and his stern ways. Henry, one of Caroline's older brothers, gets in massive trouble and Caroline learns responsibility that I think is admirable. I suggest this book for people who like Ma, family, and "The Little House series".

    My sister crochets and she made me fingerless gloves. She is super talented and she also made some potholders for my mom and some crochet flowers for my grandma. I suggest this book. P.S. All of the things I said my sister did is from this book! Happy Crocheting! 🧶

    Ketchup in my family is a big deal. My grandma makes really, and I mean really, dry roast beef. Ketchup is the only thing that helps moisturize it. LOL!
