amjammi 's review for:

4.0

An article published right at the end of his presidency described president Obama as "loading up a kindle" for his daughter, and this book was highlighted as one of his selections. It is good. I see why a father would want his daughters to read and love these stories.

Also, I know it is described as memoir, but I think I was more emotionally invested in the story of the author's mother, Brave Orchid, than of the life of the author.
