Read a short extract of Michelle Obama’s memoir.

 

When I was a kid, my aspirations were simple. I wanted a dog […] I used to tell people that when I grew up, I was going to be a pediatrician. Why? Because I loved being around little kids and I quickly learned that it was a pleasing answer for adults to hear. Oh! A doctor! What a good choice! […] I was ambitious, though I didn’t know exactly what I was shooting for.
