Boston College graduate Clelia Gore, a former literary agent and vice president of a boutique literary agency, has co-authored a children’s book, Your Freedom, Your Power (Running Press Kids/Hachette, 2023). Writing under the name Clelia Castro-Malaspina, she and her co-author Allison Matulli offer middle grade readers a look at the freedoms and rights granted through the First Amendment (freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, and the right to petition the government). The book not only explains fundamental legal concepts, but also shares the stories behind some of the most important legal cases and social movements that have affected kids’ lives and rights.
