Even as a proficient and adult reader, I learned a lot about our president from reading this biography. Before the text even starts, there is a "words to know" section that gives readers definitions of important vocabulary that they will find throughout the text. From living in Hawaii and Indonesia, to his father moving back to Africa, to his efforts to stop mistreatment of blacks in South Africa, there is so much that students will learn about our Presidents besides political information. Towards the end of the text, Obama's political efforts are explained to students in simple sentences that make sense of the complicated topics. For example, "he gave legal help to people who had been treated unfairly at their jobs." This text is also a part of the "African-American Heres" collection that highlights even more African-American figures who have done great things for our country. ( ) I think that this is a good book. I like that the author included real photographs from President Obama's past. This helps the reader to connect with the president on a personal level. For example, the author includes a photograph of the president's high school basketball team. This allows the reader to get a deeper look into President Obama's personal life as a child. I also like that the author includes a timeline in the back of the book. Although the information on the timeline can be found in the text, it is helpful for the events to be organized into a chronological timeline. The main idea of the story is that hard work and determination can make dreams come true. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
