Inspired by the #1 New York Times bestseller She Persisted by
Chelsea Clinton and Alexandra Boiger, a chapter book series about
women who spoke up and rose up against the odds--including Deb
Haaland! As a child of two military parents, Deb Haaland moved
around a lot when she was young before finally settling in
Albuquerque to be near family. But she persisted, studying hard and
eventually earning a law degree. An enrolled member of the Pueblo
Laguna nation, Deb was one of the first two Native American women
to be elected to Congress, where she represented New Mexico's 1st
District. In 2021, when the Senate confirmed her as President
Biden's secretary of the interior, she became the first Native
American in history to become a cabinet secretary. She continues to
break barriers and inspire future generations to dream of greater
opportunities. In this chapter book biography by acclaimed author
Laurel Goodluck, readers learn about the amazing life of Deb
Haaland--and how she persisted. Complete with an
introduction from Chelsea Clinton, black-and-white illustrations
throughout, and a list of ways that readers can follow in Deb
Haaland's footsteps and make a difference! A perfect choice
for kids who love learning and teachers who want to bring inspiring
women into their curriculum. And don’t miss out on the rest of
the books in the She Persisted series, featuring so many more women
who persisted, including Maria Tallchief, Wilma Mankiller, Patsy
Mink, and more!
