Book description
Audiobook Review - "I Dissent" by Debbie Levy
If you've ever been curious about the woman who earned the nickname "Notorious RBG," this audiobook is a perfect, engaging introduction. Debi Levy turns Ruth Bader Ginsburg's life into a vibrant story told through her most famous dissents-those moments when she chose to disagree with the majority and yet stood firm in her principles.
The narrator brings the book alive with clear, expressive delivery that captures both the seriousness of Ginsburg's legal battles and the warmth of her personal journey. You can hear the subtle humor as the story explains how "disagreeing does not make you disagreeable." The pacing is just right: it moves briskly enough to keep younger listeners' attention while still giving them time to absorb the weight of each case.
Levy's writing style is accessible, and she never shies away from explaining complex legal concepts. She turns each dissent into a mini-lesson about justice, equality, and persistence-an inspiring reminder that standing up for what you believe in can change history. The audiobook version preserves all those moments of clarity, making it an excellent choice for both children and adults who want to learn about Ginsburg without getting lost in legal jargon.
Overall, "I Dissent" is a compelling blend of biography and education. It celebrates RBG's legacy in a way that feels personal and relatable, proving once again that listening can be as powerful as reading. Whether you're a fan of Supreme Court stories or simply looking for an uplifting narrative about standing up for what matters, this audiobook delivers with charm and insight.
