Since Barack Obama was young, hope has lived inside him. From the beaches of Hawaii to the streets of Chicago, from the jungles of Indonesia to the plains of Kenya, he has held on to hope. This is the moving story of an exceptional man, as gracefully told by Nikki Grimes and memorably illustrated by Bryan Collier, both winners of the Coretta Scott King Award.
