Warm, powerful, and completely unforgettable, The Story of Michelle Obama is the true biography of one of the most beloved figures of the modern era, perfect for young readers aged 8 to 12, especially girls who dream big.Michelle LaVaughn Robinson grew up in a modest home on Chicago's South Side, the daughter of a pump operator and a stay-at-home mother who poured everything into their children's futures.
Michelle graduated from Princeton University and Harvard Law School, became a high-flying corporate lawyer, and then chose to leave it all behind for community work she believed in more.When her husband Barack became President of the United States, Michelle brought to the White House a set of values that were entirely her own. She launched Let's Move! - a nationwide campaign against childhood obesity. She championed Joining Forces for military families. She hosted students from struggling schools for sleepovers in the Lincoln Bedroom. And she wrote Becoming, the autobiography that sold 17 million copies and became the best-selling memoir in history.Perfect as a companion to The Story of Barack Obama, this biography gives young readers a complete picture of a complete partnership and a standalone story of extraordinary achievement.Inside you will find: Michelle's childhood in Chicago and the family values that shaped her. Her journey through Princeton, Harvard, and corporate law. Her eight years as First Lady and the programmes she championed. The writing of Becoming and its extraordinary global impact. Lessons in ambition, authenticity, and staying true to your roots.
