Critics Review
“The narrative concludes prior to the end of Warren’s presidential run and, although she did not get the nomination, the ending of the book is still hopeful and empowering. Readers are left with the feeling that improving the lives of others is the real goal and running for president is just one path to incite change.

A laudatory biography of a leader in contemporary American politics.” – School Library Journal
