Last read

I just finished Dreams from my Father by Barack Obama. The book was amazing with a statement on trying to find oneself while trying to lift up others. He really got me in the book, which I decided to read after hearing some statements others accused him of writing (that were not in there). I would recommend this book to anyone, there is no politics in it, just his struggle to find himself and a great journey he had on the way. Also through the book I found two interesting things, one is the most amazing tree ever. It is called the baobab tree and it is found in Africa. It can hold over 32,000 gallons of water to survive a drought. Some are believed to be over a thousand years old!
