Sue - Paper Plus Masterton - April 2021

Michelle Robinson was born on the south side of Chicago, from modest beginnings and with parents that instilled ethics of hard work, honesty and courage. From her early years of marriage and the struggle to create work-life balance, she details the shift to politics. Most important this volume for young people is an honest and fascinating account of her life led by example. She shares her views on how young people can help themselves as well as help others, no matter their status in life. She asks readers to realise that no one is perfect and that the process of becoming is what matters. In telling her story with boldness, she asks young readers – who are you? And what do you want to become?”
