Barack Obama's inspirational message - famously summarised in the campaign slogan: 'Yes, we can!' - is transposed in this beautifully produced picture book into a tribute to the potential of all children. In simple, tender language, he poses a series of questions to his daughters - and by extension to all children - designed to remind them of all the qualities he admires in them and to offer examples of the full flowering of those same traits in a range of heroic figures who shaped the ideals and values of his nation. The book's inclusive theme is that everyone - irrespective of race, gender, religion or belief - has a unique gift and an ability to pursue their own dream.
