Adapted by Sarah L. Thomson.
For middle-grade readers curious about Barack Obama, this adaptation of a book for adults is a useful if adulatory resource. The text outlines Obama's early life, community organizing, and election to the Senate, ending before he secures the Democratic presidential nomination. Quotes from the author's interviews with Obama and his circle personalize the text; photos of a young "Barry" are included.
