About This Book
This is the exciting biography of a dynamic presidential hopeful.In July
2004, Barack Obama's speech at the Democratic National Convention
transformed him into a political star. Three years later, the young
state senator from Illinois started his campaign to become president of
the United States. Obama's life story captures the hope that defines the
American dream. Born to a Kenyan father and a mother from Kansas who
divorced when he was only two, Obama grew up in Hawaii and Indonesia. As
an adult, he served his community, first as an organizer working to
register new voters and to provide opportunities for the poor, and later
as a politician. His 2008 campaign to become president of the United
States inspired many to believe in what he called "the audacity of
hope."This new biography explores the remarkable life of a presidential
hopeful with full-color photographs, an index, and updated information.
"Did You Know?" fact boxes throughout highlight interesting facts about
Obama's life and career, and a list of Web sites provide readers with
further reading.
