Product description

Review

Demonstrates that everyone’s voice matters and needs to be heard. Powerful stuff! — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"The prose is reminiscent of an inspirational speech (“Everyone’s path looks different”), with a message of service that includes fun biographical facts, such as her love of Bruce Lee. Pawis-Steckley (who is Ojibwe Woodland) contributes boldly lined and colored digital illustrations, inflected with Native symbols and bold colors. A hopeful and accessible picture book profile." — Publishers Weekly

"... a welcome addition to picture-book biography shelves."  — Booklist

"affecting picture-book autobiography" — The Horn Book

Raised on military bases, Sharice worked her way through Johnson County Community College in Kansas City, before eventually earning a law degree from Cornell Law School.  As a first-generation college student who had to work for everything including martial arts lessons, Representative Davids is focused on increasing opportunity by supporting public education and affordable healthcare. Davids was a White House Fellow under President Barack Obama.  When she was sworn into the 116th Congress, Representative Davids became one of the first two Native American women to serve in Congress. She is a resident of Roeland Park, Kansas.

This is a wonderful and inspiring story for kids of ALL ages! I already knew Sharice's big voice could inspire and motivate, as working on her historic run for Congress in Kansas' 3rd District led to many of us running for office! This should be on every family's bookshelf because "...each of us has our own path-and the most important thing in the world is to be true to your own journey."

Also, having raised the world's pickiest eaters, I'm grateful to know that hating onions on their pizza will not hold them back from achieving their biggest dreams! So far, I've purchased copies for my granddaughters, a neighborhood Kindergartner who may have already found her big voice and my daughter's best friend's baby due in July! I will definitely need more...
