We wake up with a book and go to bed with one. That’s why I’m very conscious of the messages hidden in the stories I read to her. May for President, the debut by Trix van der Vleuten, is on our list because it aims to inspire children to think big. In this inclusive book full of humor, suspense, adventure, and a love for animals, she touches on current themes such as female leadership, elections, and climate change.
