Summary
"Given Tammy Duckworth's personal heroism as an Army veteran, her stunning recovery from injuries sustained in the line of duty, and her subsequent career as an influential US senator, it's easy to see why Joe Biden earmarked her as a possible running mate during his Democratic presidential campaign. Senator Duckworth has logged a long list of firsts during her tenure as the first Thai American member of Congress, including being the first woman with a disability to serve in the House and Senate. But it is her tireless determination to keep going against staggering odds that will rivet listeners of all ages. Evoking Senator Duckworth's spirited nature with sensitivity and joy, this narrative biography of the groundbreaking military veteran and rising political star will inspire listeners to dream and achieve."
