Former First Lady of the United States of America, Michelle Obama, has been busy writing her memoirs and they are set to be released on November 13th 2018.
Publisher, Penguin Random House, said in a statement that the book will be “an unusually intimate reckoning from a woman of soul and substance who has steadily defied expectations — and whose story inspires us to do the same.”
Michelle’s book will be printed in 24 languages and sell for $32.50 in the United States.
Writing BECOMING has been a deeply personal experience. I talk about my roots and how a girl from the South Side found her voice. I hope my journey inspires readers to find the courage to become whoever they aspire to be. I can't wait to share my story. https://t.co/d7DxEG85NK

According to a statement, the memoir “invites readers into her world, chronicling the experiences that have shaped her — from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work, to her time spent at the world’s most famous addresses.”
There are plans to donate one million copies of the book in the Obama family’s name to a Washington-based nonprofit organisation dedicated to “promoting equal access to education by providing new books, learning materials and other essentials to children in need in the U.S. and Canada.”
