First Ladies


Recommended Book

Becoming
by Michelle Obama
An insightful book for many reasons! Michelle Obama is such an interesting person and, of course, this book tells her story. But it also gives a novel glimpse into the White House during the Obama administration. As one should expect in 21st century US politics, not everyone agrees. One recent review on Amazon says: "Poorly written, silly comments in bad taste, this is not a good book for a lady to read."
