This Child Will Be Great: Memoir of a Remarkable Life by Africa's First Woman President"Exceptionally well written, a true story that seems as much a thriller as the remembrances of an ambitious and brave woman. . . .

"Exceptionally well written, a true story that seems as much a thriller as the remembrances of an ambitious and brave woman. . . . This timely book. . . is a lesson in courage and perseverance." -- Washington Post

An inspirational memoir from Africa's first elected female president about her improbable rise to international prominence, her fight for political freedom, and her unwavering determination to rebuild her nation--Liberia--in the wake of civil war

In January 2006, after the Republic of Liberia had been racked by fourteen years of brutal civil conflict, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf--Africa's "Iron Lady"--was sworn in as president, an event that marked a tremendous turning point in the history of the West African nation.

In this stirring memoir, Sirleaf shares the story of her rise to power, including her early childhood; her experiences with abuse, imprisonment, and exile; and her fight for democracy and social justice. She reveals her determination to succeed in multiple worlds, from her studies in the United States to her work as an international bank executive, to campaigning in some of Liberia's most desperate and war-torn villages and neighborhoods. It is the tale of an outspoken political and social reformer who fought the oppression of dictators and championed change. By telling her story, Sirleaf encourages women everywhere to pursue leadership roles at the highest levels of power, and gives us all hope that we can change the world.

Best one in the series!
Format: Hardcover
My son is 12 and has been watching the FGTeeV family for a long time. He's read all of their books so far and he said this one was the best! He's very excited about the new Campfire book being released this year.

The shoes look very nice. Unfortunately, the shoes have absolutely no cushion. They are very very uncomfortable and if you are wearing them to walk at all, I would suggest a different shoe.

Great book for kids
Format: Paperback
My daughter is a fan of this family on YouTube. She is in first grade and beginning to read chapter books. This style of book has encouraged her to continue reading. She is on her second FGTEEV book And I believe that the pictures with words in that comic book style is an encouragement for her to continue reading. She really enjoys the story and all the bright illustrations.

We've fallen in love with these books. We love the comic style because I makes reading FUN again. My kids are learning to make sound effects while reading and it’s just so exciting.
