This Child Will Be Great by Ellen Johnson SirleafRead about the other books on the list.
In 2005, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, a co-winner of this year's Nobel Peace Prize, was elected the first, and so far only, female president in Africa.
Her memoirs follow her incredible journey from a humble upbringing and young marriage, through domestic abuse and imprisonment during the civil war, and finally her role in bringing peace to Liberia – the country that she now runs.
