Discover the incredible life story of Barack Obama, the first African American president of the USA. Barack Obama is famous for his meteoric rise to the presidency of the most powerful country in the world - the USA. This is the story of how he realized his dreams - a story of success, resilience, and perseverance that enabled him to become one of the most admired leaders the world has ever seen.

In this children's biography, discover Barack's fight against racial and social injustices, hardships and setbacks in his early career, and his happiness when marrying Michelle.
