From acclaimed author Linda Elovitz Marshall comes a picture book biography of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that highlights the importance of standing up for what one believes in, defending freedom at all costs, and maintaining hope in the face of warâs atrocitiesâwith stunning art from Ukrainian illustrator Grasya Oliyko.
Volodymyr Zelensky wanted to make Ukraine a better, kinder, more joyful place. Born to Jewish parents, Volodymyr had much love and pride for his country. Growing up, even with Ukraineâs various conflicts, he liked to make people laugh. After university, he became a comedian and actor. But he knew humor wasnât enough to fix his nationâs ongoing problems. So, in 2019, he ran for presidentâand won!
Leading with honesty, heart, and humor, President Zelensky stood up for what he believed in, no matter how tough the situation. And when Ukraine was invaded, he bravely defended his country, the Ukrainian people, and their right to freedom at all costs.
Featuring an authorâs note, educational timeline, and more, this powerful nonfiction account beautifully captures President Volodymyr Zelenskyâs journey to office and Ukraineâs fight for truth and independence amidst rising tensions.
