Grade Level: Third, Fourth, Fifth Grade
This exciting biography introduces readers to one of the most remarkable persons in recent times and in the news today-Barack Obama. This resource takes a close-up look at Barack Obama and reveals information about his early life, inspirations, and struggles he faced on the rise to greatness. His mother came from Kansas. His father came from Kenya.
He grew up in Hawaii and Indonesia, far from the center of American
politics. Few people had even heard of Barack Obama before 2004. But
one powerful speech in Boston changed all that for the Illinois senator.
In 2008, this inspiring leader ran for the country's top job - president.

Testimonials I am a stay at home mom who values education very much, and these resources have been able to help me start my child's education early in order to give her a head start before she even enters into school. - Heather L. The resources I received will help me tremendously with reading skills. I was amazed at how quickly I received my order. - Annette H. My son needed some additional work with his fine motor skills to prepare him for Kindergarten next year. We work out of the books I ordered. He does his "homework" when my older son is completing his after school. He loves it! It makes him feel like a big boy. I was amazed that my order arrived two days after I placed it, especially because it was the Holiday season. - Dawn M. I purchased the full color Kindergarten file folder games, and my students love them. We use them daily during our literacy groups. Your service was great! - Cindy M. They provide a variety of ways to reach different students and allow me to vary my activities year-to-year. - Staci M. I have used all the materials with my Kdg. class and found them to be
so appropriate. The children enjoy them. - Jennifer C.
