AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was raised by hardworking parents in the Bronx, New York. They wanted her to have every opportunity, and encouraged her to succeed. She excelled in school, was in a pre-med program in college and even worked abroad, helping women in Niger who were pregnant. But family circumstances brought her back to New York, and advocacy and activism drew her to politics. She was the youngest woman ever elected to Congress.
Phenomenal AOC is an inspirational biography. I loved Lora's illustrations, using bright colors makes everything about AOC young and vibrant. Includes some inspiring lessons and quotes, along with a glossary of sorts, called "Language of the Possible". Definitely purchasing for my Biography Collection. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is Puerto Rican American
