Superheroes Are Everywhere

Senator and presidential candidate Kamala Harris reads her own work, which features everyday family and friends as superheros. Harris enthusiastically describes her earliest supporters and inspirations and kindly poses questions about who in young listeners' own lives champions them and their dreams. Harris is not a seasoned narrator, of course, but her earnestness is fitting for a text full of sentimentality and empowerment. She varies her pace and inflections when necessary, and the listener can hear her smiling as she thanks her loved ones for their encouragement. Harris's voice becomes the most natural and comfortable at the very end when she reads a timeline of her life and impressive accomplishments. Overall, Harris gives a spirited narration of her own story and uplifting message for children. E.A.N. � AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine
