Pelosi / by Ball, Molly,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."An intimate, fresh perspective on the most powerful woman in American political history, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, by award-winning political journalist Molly Ball. She's the iconic leader who puts Donald Trump in his place, the woman with the toughness to take on a lawless president and defend American democracy. Ever since the Democrats took back the House in the 2018 midterm elections, Nancy Pelosi has led the opposition with strategic mastery and inimitable elan. It's a remarkable comeback for the veteran politician who for years was demonized by the right and taken for granted by many in her own party-even though, as speaker under President Barack Obama, she deserves much of the credit for epochal liberal accomplishments from universal access to health coverage to allowing gay people to serve openly in the military. How did a 79-year-old Italian grandmother become the greatest legislator since LBJ? Ball's nuanced, page-turning portrait takes readers inside the life and times of this historic and underappreciated figure. Based on exclusive interviews with the Speaker and deep background reporting, Ball shows Pelosi through a thoroughly modern lens to explain how this extraordinary woman has met her moment"--

"Bellamy Muñoz is a Wanderland SUPERFAN, and she knows everything there is to know about the most "wander-ful" place on Earth, from the secret lore behind each ride, to all the spots to find the best snacks (with the shortest lines). So when she winds up in the very real and very magical world the park is based on, where there are actual princesses and quests and destiny, Bel is pretty sure she's uniquely prepared for this situation ... until it starts to become clear that Wander isn't actually much like the theme park at all, and the characters Bel loves aren't at all like she'd imagined."--Back cover.
