Publisher's summary

An inspiring book that tells the story of Rashida Tlaib, one of the first Muslim women elected to Congress, and her family. Perfect for listeners of books that celebrate trailblazing women and social activists as well as those looking for an introduction to civic engagement and how government works.

"Hey Adam, is the president Mom's boss now?"

When Yousif Tlaib asks about his mom's new job in Congress, his older brother, Adam, fills him in—with some help from Rashida Tlaib herself. As he tells his mom’s story, Adam reveals information about how elections and our government work, what it means to break barriers, what motivates their mama to work for justice for all, and how love and family have guided them through this historic time in our country.

From growing up in Detroit—the eldest of fourteen siblings and the first in her immigrant family to graduate from high school—through her journey into community activism and then local politics, to eventually becoming one of the first Muslim Congresswomen and an influential national figure, Rashida Tlaib's inspiring story shows kids that they, too, can do great things and make a difference.

Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

INSPIRING AND HEARTWARMING

Seeing Rashida through her son's eyes is so sweet. This is a beautifully written account of her devotion to others as well as her family's struggles to get where they are today. I can't wait to read it to my children.
