Thank you Zondervan! We needed this one for sure.
And let me be the first to say that I think that every single 9-year-old in America needs to read this inspirational story about the under-qualified governor who almost made it to the White House but thank-God-she-didn’t and instead she quit her job as governor and started making real money giving speeches at Tea Party gatherings.
“Speaking Up: The Sarah Palin Story,” is one in a series of biographies aimed at 9- to 12-year-old readers. Others feature 2007 Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow and U2 frontman Bono.
Kathleen Kerr, an acquisitions editor for Zondervan’s Zonderkidz division, said the subjects are prominent figures who children hear about in the news and role models for tweens who are “working for the betterment of the world in which we live and who are motivated primarily by their Christian faith.”
Who do you think should be Kathleen’s NEXT ROLE MODEL to tell 9-year-old about?
I’m thinking a book about the first 12 minutes of Carrie Prejean’s 15 minutes of fame would be stellar!
