This book is about the life of Bill Clinton from his childhood until he became the president of the USA. The book started when he was really young and he lived with his grandparents. The book tells of a special thing that he did when he became the president of America. He lived through bad times with his family, but he stood up and continued to fight for his goals. It´s a good book because it shares the life of our 42nd president.
