Judge Juliette Written by Laura Gehl Illustrated by Mari Lobo Sterling Publishing Teacher’s Guide Writing Prompts/Discussion Questions: 1. If you suddenly got permission to get a pet, which pet would you choose? Why? 2. If Judge Juliette lived in your neighborhood, what case would you bring to her courtroom to settle? For example, is it fair that you have the same bedtime as your younger brother? Or is it fair that your Mom is making you pay for a vase that you broke when it was an accident? Or if you had the idea to make and sell cookies, but your friend helped with the baking and selling, should the profits be split evenly, or should you get more of the money because it was your idea? What do you think Judge Juliette would say about your case? 3. At the end of the book, Judge Juliette recuses herself, because judges cannot be in charge of cases involving their own family members. Do you think this is a good rule? Why or why not? 4. Write a story about two kids who have a disagreement and bring their problem to Judge Juliette to resolve. Include details about what each kid tells Judge Juliette and how Judge Juliette rules on the case.
