My VP Looks Like Me is an inspiring children's book about a young girl who starts to think about what she would like to be when she grows up. The story depicts Kamala Harris, America's first woman Vice President, as a role model who shows the young girl that anything is possible.

The repetitive phrase My VP Looks Like Me, used throughout the story, was made viral by thousands of young black girls and women of colour who wore the expression on T-shirts in support of the historic celebration.

This must-read story was inspired by a Vice President who paved a path for future generations to see extraordinary achievements as ordinary.
