**This inspiring picture-book biography about Nancy Pelosi shows her
journey from the child of Baltimore's mayor to her
marble-ceiling-shattering four terms as Speaker of the House, including
the historic events of January 6th, 2021.
**
Nancy Pelosi grew up watching her father, the mayor of Baltimore,
welcome in people of all different backgrounds to sit at their table and
make their voices heard. Nancy's mother always stood beside him, working
behind the scenes to help her husband and the people he served. When
Nancy grew up, she continued working behind the scenes in politics until
a friend asked her to run for Congress herself--jump-starting a 33 year
career as a political representative and taking her higher than she
could have once imagined.
Young girls, especially, will be inspired by Nancy's journey and her
commitment to using her voice to help others and to make sure women are
heard in government. The backmatter also includes an exclusive interview
with Nancy Pelosi herself.
