內容簡介

This is the story of a skinny little boy with a funny name and how he became part of America’s history.

In very clear and accessible language, newly independent readers can learn how the lessons and love of Obama’s mother and grandparents shaped him; how the places he lived influenced him; and how he turned his sadness from his childhood—the feeling he didn’t fit in anywhere—into a positive, driving force of finding a place in the world and in the history books.

"History and biography are also successful topics for level-three readers. (Random House’s) Step into Reading has the best offerings for the reading level . . . they are high in kid appeal."
--Booklist

"Barack Obama's is an extraordinary person, and this biography is told in a simple, personal way so that youngsters may understand his heritage, background, experience, and more. At just under fifty pages, this book from the "Step into Reading" series is a Step 3, "Reading on Your Own" Level. Barack Obama's story as the forty-fourth president of the United States is one of diversity, unexpected changes and numerous challenges met with solid encouragement from family about life's lessons. In particular, President Obama's mother and grandparents were stable forces that helped shape him. He was born in Hawaii in 1961, moved to Indonesia, returned to Hawaii at age ten, went to college in the northeast and began his career in Chicago. As a young boy, his father was largely absent, although one important occasion stands out in the accounting of this president's development. One winter at about age ten, his father came to visit in Hawaii and gave his son a basketball. For a long time, Barack didn't feel that he fit in where he lived, but he diligently practiced basketball. He tried to find purpose and meaning while he studied hard in school. Obama's mother believed education was important and that everyone was the same inside. She taught him values of fairness, honesty and hard work. Playing basketball in high school allowed Barack to internalize one of life's key principles. It was the beginning of Barak Obama's focus on helping others, experiencing a sense of teamwork and pursuing common goals. After college graduation, he first went to Chicago to register new voters, set up after-school programs for children, and help others find jobs. Even there, his mother and grandparents still deeplyinfluenced him. "I discovered how my . . . story fit into the larger American story." Later, he attended law school and met and married his wife Michelle, also a lawyer. The couple had two daughters named Malia and Sasha. When he ran for the U.S. Senate in 2004, one of his speeches presented an emerging philosophy: "There is not a black America and a white America and a Latino America and an Asian America—there's the United States of America!" Thus, as the first African American president, Obama made history. By an overwhelming majority, people worked together, sought change for the country, and voted for him. "Each of us is free to seek our own dreams, but we must also serve a common purpose," Obama has said. The president's achievement would indeed become America's story as well. This story about the United States of America has once again shown that "all things are possible!"

京東這次活動很給瞭，就開始囤貨瞭。這些繪本書，女兒都喜歡看，趁活動就買瞭，嗬嗬。從小我就喜歡讀書。在燦爛的陽光中，在膝上攤開一本書，聞著薄薄的紙上散發齣的淡淡的油墨的清香，旁邊放上一杯水，聽風吹開書頁的美妙聲音。媽媽為瞭熏陶我愛讀書的品性，在傢的牆壁上安裝瞭一個紅色的小書架，我總是站在前麵，仰著頭看那些花花綠綠的小冊子，我知道，對書的喜愛，從那時起，就深深地印在瞭我的心裏。 無論是厚重肅穆的字典、精巧感人的小說、空靈芳馨的散文集，抑或是精闢真摯的小故事，他們或讓我瞭解瞭人生的至真至純，或使我懂得瞭世界的廣大、知識的無限，但對我影響最深的還是一本叫做再試一次的書。我的數學一嚮不好，無論我怎麼認真聽講，努力做題，成績永遠是在80分上下晃悠。來迴考瞭幾次成績都無太大變化，我有點心灰意冷地想放棄努力。看到我不思進取想後退的破罐子破摔的行為，媽媽沒有多言語些什麼。隻是在我生日時，送給我一本書，名字叫再試一次。這是一本並不起眼的書，淡藍色的封皮，淡雅而普通。講的是一個大學生畢業後在商海中艱苦創業摸爬滾打，失敗瞭許多次最終成為百萬富翁的故事。情節並不時髦，甚至有些俗套，但是有一句話讓我印象很深“當你失敗瞭許多次的時候，韆萬不要放棄，因為如果此時失去成功的信念，之前的失敗就白費瞭，每一次失敗都是成功對你的考驗，多一次失敗你就離成功又進瞭一步，再試一次，或許你就成功瞭。”這本書，告訴瞭我短短的兩句話，卻又是一個對我影響深遠的道理。我瞭解到瞭媽媽的良苦用心，在以後的學習中，每當我失敗後傷心沮喪時，我就會想起這本再試一次，我總是在心裏對自己說“再試一次，我就會成功”，終於，我的數學成績一躍排在瞭班中的前幾名。麵對著我的進步，我笑瞭，媽媽笑瞭，我覺得那本書，也笑瞭。 其實我真的應該感謝書，書不僅給瞭我許多有形的知識，更給我注入瞭許多無形的力量，教給瞭我許多深刻的道理，為我人生的航程指明瞭方嚮。再美的花兒也會凋零，再絢麗的彩虹也會消失，但隻要有瞭書將它們珍藏其中，便會成為永恒的美麗。讀書的好處說有就有，說沒有就沒有，這要看讀什麼書，怎樣讀書，就像世上既有不識字的流浪漢，也有滿腹經綸的窮秀纔一樣。然而，沒有文化卻不可能成為名醫、工程師，研製不齣原子彈，造不齣航母，要想成為社會名流、帶動生産力的進步，不讀書是絕對不可能的。正如俄羅斯文學傢高爾基說的，書是人類進步的階梯。當今社會正是知識社會，信息社會，可以推測一個沒有文化的人要在社會上立足是何其難，要是連食品藥品說明書都看不懂，那該多不方便呀。因此，趁著年輕，努力學習、努力讀書吧。它會使你變得聰明，給你插上騰飛的翅膀，在社會中翱翔!
