"Michelle Obama--Meet the First Lady! by David Brophy
If anyone wants to know who Michelle Obama is, and precisely what she stands for, they need look no further!

This excellent little book tells it like it is-- no frills, just plain speaking and extremely well-researched facts, written in an immensely readable way. Once I started it, I could not put it down; and given its size, this made it easy for me to complete reading it in about ONE hour!!
Great for individuals like myself, who are of African- Caribbean heritage, but who live abroad, in the wide, global diaspora of those who fall into the same category as the Obamas.

I have now read at least 5 books, either written by, or about, the Obamas; and, apart from those actually written by President Obama himself, before he became President, i.e. "Dreams of My Father" and "The Audacity of Hope", I would place this little gem at the top of my list.

It definitely deserves 5 stars from me!

This book tells the story of Michelle Robinson Obama.

She grew up in Chicago and worked hard to get into prestigious schools such as Princeton and Harvard. While working in Chicago after graduating Law School, Michelle met a brilliant and enlightening law student named Barack Obama.

Michelle fell in love, got married, raised a family, and supported her husband in his political career.

David Bergen Brophy writes a very informative biography about the future First Lady. After reading this book, one can expect to have general knowledge of Michelle Obama - and the reader even gets a few insights into soon-to-be President Obama's past and present life.

The book is a quick and easy read that leaves the reader satisfied.
