Baroness Hale, president of the Supreme Court, is now also the subject of an illustrated children’s book.
Equal to Everything: Judge Brenda and the Supreme Court, by Afua Hirsch and Henny Beaumont, tells Lady Hale’s inspirational story through the eyes of Ama, a fictional young girl from Lady Hale’s hometown of Richmond, North Yorkshire, who visits the Supreme Court. Real cases are used to explain important concepts. Dr Laura Janes, chair of Legal Action Group, which published the title, said: ‘This book shows children that the law belongs to everybody and is within their reach, wherever they have started out.’
