Pat Zietlow Miller and Jerry Jordan

In her new picture book, Unstoppable John: How John Lewis Got His Library Card and Helped Change History, Sun Prairie-based New York Times bestselling picture book author Pat Zietlow Miller reveals how the civil rights icon was denied a library card as a boy. That incident sparked his lifelong pursuit to make the world a more equitable and just place — especially for Black people. Madison artist Jerry Jordan’s visceral illustrations add historical context and bring the young Lewis to life for readers young and old.
