Michelle é uma figura muito carismática e, pelo menos esta versão para jovens leitores, lê-se tão bem que quase sentimos que estamos a ter uma conversa com a autora, tal a genuinidade e proximidade impressas nas páginas. More than an organizing principle, her evocative statement also shows her genuine understanding of young people. When she was already at the top of her life, Michelle tried to keep it as normal as possible, especially when she wanted her two girls to grow up like normal children. Obama speak at the NCTE conference (virtually) this past fall, and it was absolutely wonderful, especially her messaging about teachers. Começamos por a conhecer em criança, quando vivia nos subúrbios de Chicago, acompanhamos a sua passagem pela faculdade, onde estuda direito, e chegamos aos anos em que viveu na Casa Branca, na companhia do marido, o Presidente dos Estados Unidos da América, das duas filhas e da mãe, que tanto a inspira.

Alles wurde so gut erklärt, dass auch jüngere Leser ohne Probleme zu dieser Biografie greifen können - und das auch sollten. It's not about being perfect, but it's about allowing the power inside yourself to be known and heard, using your unique voice, willing to know and hear others. Just like Michelle Obama, you too are finding out exactly who you want to be (and, actually, so are the adults in your life).

From my room, I’d listen to them attempting, note by uncertain note, to win her approval, graduating from “Hot Cross Buns” to “Brahms’s Lullaby,” but only after many tries. It barely alters Obama’s nuanced writing and compelling stories, and never talks down to its audience. She clearly came from humble beginnings and with hard work and a great family to support her rose to be a great example of the American Dream.
