Just Help
Wednesday, 11 December, 2024
Just Help is the title of a children’s book written by one of our Supreme Court justices, Sonia Sotomayor. Although it’s a kid’s book, its message is for all ages. As we approach a new year, Just Help’s message challenges us all to daily find ways to answer the central question of the book: “What will you do today to make the world a better place?”When she was a girl, each day when Sonia woke up, her mother asked her a question, “How will you help today to make the world a better place?” Then each morning, Sonia set about to have a good answer to her mother’s question. Via charming pictures and text, Sonia and her friends discover ways to make their neighborhood, city and the wider world a better place. Building a better world is a big project, one that takes a lot of work, and is not always easy, but it begins with a simple question: “How will I help today?”Associate Justice Sonia Sotomayor, of the US Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor challenges us: What will you do today to make the world a better place?
