Great Spontaneous Pictures of Mr Obama
I love that it shows different aspects of the daily life of a president living in the White House. Some pictures are solemn. Others show great humor. My grandson loved it.

Wonderfully shot & notated
This book evokes fond memories of the Barak Obama era. The focus is on the man & his family, not so much on the office & the politics. The office was enhanced by the man, not the reverse.

You will want more than one copy.
Perfect book for my son. For anyone's child really. It allows your child to see how you can dream big and become anything you want in America if you work hard at it. It's a very diverse book and I love that about it. My son enjoyed all the pictures of inside the White house. I don't imagine we will be seeing anything like this while Mr. Trump is in office. President Obama and his wife really did show daily how much they cared about the children of America and around the world really. Empathy and selflessness. I have already bought multiple copies to give out as gifts to other kids besides my own.

A perfect book to kick off the new year
A perfect book to kick off the new year. Inspirational and emotional look at Barack Obama’s eight years as president through the lens of his photographer Pete Souza. There are funny shots and heartbreaking shots. We see the playful, contemplative, hard working, respectful, kind, gentle, husband father and leader he was and is. My admiration for him as a human is huge and we were lucky to have him serve our country for eight years. Such a classy, intelligent, kind man.

Heartfelt genuine life advice through example.
It's a beautiful book. The photographer has captured images of B. Obama interacting with children and adults that perfectly capture his humanity and genuine interest and concern for people of all walks of life, his humility, and love for children. I bought it as a present and the recipient absolutely loved it.

This wonderful book brings back memories of better days
Oh how I miss you President Obama. I miss your grace, your style, your sense of humor, your humanity. This wonderful book brings back memories of better days. Compassionate days filled with hope. Back when I was so very proud to be an American. When I was proud of my president. When my president inspired me to be a better person, a better American. I miss you Mr. Obama, I miss your gracious and generous wife and your lovely daughters. Be well Obama family. I'll sit here at smile at the photos of a Better America. A Better President. A brighter hope. Thank you Mr. Souza for sharing your talent and these phenomenal photos!

Her mother and father loved it, and thought it was so special
This was a gift to my 4 month old granddaughter for her to read as she grows older, and be read to till she gets there. Her mother and father loved it, and thought it was so special. The wonder and beauty of Barack Obama's books for young people (Dream big Dreams, Of Thee I Sing: Letters to My Daughters) are that they're not about him. They are about historical figures, famous and non-famous, who dreamed big dreams and showed outstanding character to make the world a better place. "If you can dream it, you can achieve it" would be their themes. And, along the way, build the character traits that make yourself an outstanding person.

An great antidote!
This book is wonderful - it's an antidote to the misery and corruption that is US politics under the current president (doesn't even warrant a capital "P"). At the same time, it's sad to realize all that we have lost, that we had for 8 years under President Obama. Truthfulness, dignity, honour, compassion, humour, love. I highly recommend this book, it might even make you cry.
