I love this book. Heartfelt, empowering, and courageous. This title encourages girls of all ages to be the best she can be.

"You should never view your challenges as a disadvantage.
Instead, it’s important for you to understand that your experience facing
and overcoming adversity is actually one of your biggest advantages."

Michelle is such an inspirational woman. I absolutely look up to her.

Definetely gonna purchase this book for myself (and my future children).

The art was stunning, beautiful and colorful and the whole writing was on point.

Unfortunately this book was archived on the same day I was approved to review it. Feedback in lieu of a review.

Very well written and illustrated. After reading becoming it is almost like a smaller version of it - condensed with amazing and inspiring illustrations. Highly recommend for Michelle fans. Or people that want to be inspired. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Thank you to the author and Netgally for the free review copy.

This book was definitely different than I thought it would be. I was expecting a fast easy read. What I got was loads of information and full pages with pictures (adorable pictures) and loads of text.

I can't see it being a all in one night bedtime story but I can see it inspiring children. Even myself as a adult was inspired!

*received for free from netgalley for honest review* I read Michelle's book Becoming (Michelle Obama) and this is a really good "kids" version of it! I really like this series so far!

Thank you netgalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Inspiring short book for middle school children, packed with pictures and inspiring quotes and anecdotes from Michelle Obama. Includes snippets of her life and the people who inspired her to be a strong leader. Really enjoyed it!

The “Work It, Girl” books are amazing resources for kids. They are detailed and don’t talk down to the reader like many children’s books do.

The Michelle Obama editionn of the series did not disappoint. The narrative really puts the reader in Michelle’s shoes. The questions at the end were very thought provoking.

And, thank you, Caroline! For not focusing on Michelle’s value in relation to Barack. Thank you for letting young readers know that you can be a fully formed person BEFORE you find your partner.

I love this kid-friendly biography of Michelle Obama! I definitely will purchase a personal copy and copies to give as gifts. The illustrations are great, and I especially love the discussion questions at the end.

Part of the "Become a leader like..." series, this book covers Michelle Robinson, lawyer, scholar, activist, and who also happened to become married to the president of a few years back (and before he was president!). She came from quite humble beginnings and was sometimes discouraged from pursuing her dreams, but she refused to let others' opinions dictate what her goals would be or where her sights would be aimed, and she achieved every one of them that she set herself, graduating Princeton and Harvard and working in a law firm before moving into more community-spirited occupations.

She met Barack Obama in that first law firm and traveled with him to the Senate and the White House, despite having some doubts about both places! This book tells a fascinating story and makes it all the more a pity that her aversion to politics will prevent her from running for president. If she did, I do not doubt that she would win hands down without question. I commend this book as a worthy and inspiring read for young children.

Couldn't download. Will purchase instead for my daughters. This looks like it is a very cute and inspiring book!

This book is virtually a great, simplified version of Michelle Obama’s Becoming. The author did a great job of taking the info about Michelle’s life and putting it into an easily accessible story for young readers. The book will help young people relate to Michelle, and see how leaders aren’t just magically created but work hard. The author also did a nice job of asking questions throughout the book to really help readers connect to and reflect upon the info presented.
I wish something like this had existed when I was younger, to show me that anyone - not just rich people, not just white people, not just men - can be a leader.

Thank you Netgalley and Quarto Publishing Group for providing me with an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

When I saw this non-fiction book for kids I just had to request the ARC because it's the perfect motivational, inspirational book for the young kids growing up. I loved how this book is part of a bigger idea with a lot more books adding to the series. I have always had the highest respect and admiration for Michelle Obama. She is a very smart, hard-working woman who fought against perceptions and difficult circumstances in life to become who she is today. This book is a biographical account of her life from a young girl to her adulthood. We follow her journey, her struggles, life-changing events and a lot more in this book. I believe this is a children's version of her book The Becoming and it makes this story accessible to a wider audience. The story of her triumph and her journey as The First lady are all quite engaging and wonderful to read about. This book will be most suitable for middle-grade and high- school kids, especially teens who would love to have a fantastic role model to emulate and get inspired by. I would highly recommend this story to all the parents and definitely encourage your young kids to read this book as its highly beneficial and the book has cool illustrations which are an added bonus. I gave this book 5 stars and I hope to get to other books as well that are part of this series in the future.

This is an inspirational book about Michelle Obama and it has lots of great illustrations in it. It shows that one can get far if one really wants to.

Work It, Girl: Michelle Obama by Caroline Moss is a fun book for the beginner reader to learn more about Michelle Obama or a strong female role model in general. While this book is definitely informative, the main message I feel it conveys is the confidence it tries to put into the reader to be exactly who they want to be. This book encourages individuality, it encourages standing up for what you believe in, and it encourages being true to yourself. While learning about Michelle and Barack Obama was interesting, that is what really makes this book an asset for anyone that wants to teach their child important life lessons.

The illustrations were cute without being too distracting. At the end, you also find the 10 most important lessons to take away from this book as well as questions that prompt the reader to think deeper about the material as well as themselves. For anybody that wants to learn more, there are also recommendations for further reading.

Work It, Girl: Michelle Obama is one seriously motivational tale that I'd highly recommend for young middle grade and teen readers.

Michelle Obama is a girl's girl. She is seriously cool, wickedly smart and super talented. If there's going to be an inspiring little biography of a woman, she's definitely the woman you'd want to pick! Michelle's story isn't simple and easy, but it shows that hard work can pay off. She went to law school, worked hard, and got things done! At times her life was tough, but she got through it and proved (and still proves) that women are absolutely strong and amazing! Her tale is honestly inspiring.

There's so many incredible pieces of art and so many motivational quotes in this book it's unbelievable. I would have ate this book up as a kid! It's reassuring to know there's some really powerful and strong women that kids can look up to.

The art style really stood out to me. There's lots of colours and a unique cut-out style look. I'm truly impressed by that. It stands out really well. Mix it in with the amazing quotes they outline, and it's perfect.

I can't really see any faults to this book. It is not many pages (under one hundred) but it does have a lot of words. I wouldn't recommend it for very young readers, but middle grade would be the youngest.

I'd highly recommend this book. I honestly think it's fantastic. My socks are blown off! No surprise - Michelle's the boss.

Five out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group - Frances Lincoln Children's Books for this amazing opportunity to review this book.

I read Becoming, and absolutely loved it so I thought I’d read this as well. It will definitely be something I pick up for my future children! She’s such an inspiration, and this tells her story in a way younger people can understand.

Thank you to the publisher for the opportunity to read and review this book. I enjoyed this one as much as the one about JK. I hope to read more work from Moss. Even though I read Michelle's Obama's book "Becoming", I still felt like I learned something from this.

I have copies of Caroline Moss’s other Work It, Girl books in my library and my students love them - they will be so excited for this new one! I love that the biography format is still kid friendly and there are eye catching and colorful illustrations to break up the text. The short chapters make the book feel more manageable to students as well. I love the spreads with important quotes and how there are reflection tips and questions at the end for readers to apply to their own lives. Another great addition to the series! Thank you, NetGalley for the ARC!

This book was simply amazing. I found that it told the story of Michelle Obamas life so far in a detailed yet easily digestible way which is great for the age group it is aimed at. The illustrations were beautiful and helped with the story telling. I found out so much more about Michelle Obama and I would totally recommend it to everyone.
