Becoming by Michelle Obama (Omnibus)

Michelle Obama chronicles the experiences that have shaped her.

From the South Side of Chicago to Princeton, to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work, to her time spent at the world's most famous address. The White House of course.

We first join her on the way to Princeton, driven there by her father, with boyfriend David as company too.

A whole new world will be opening up, from the South Side in Chicago to these hallowed halls of learning.

Michelle Obama reads from her memoir
