"This is a fairly dry biography, but I think the popular adoration of our new president will make it a readable MCBA choice for most kids. There was information here I didn't know--particularly the very complex family tree that his father cultivated and the depth of his work in community action. The book tries to present an unbiased view and includes the missed gun control vote while he was in Hawaii, the relationship with Rev. Wright and the broken campaign promise to accept public campaign funding. His sense of family, values and the American Dream are showcased."
"Really great reading for kids (of many ages once they can read chapter books) as well as adults who want a quick and easy read that's well written with many interesting details of his personal life. Informative and interesting."
