Zondervan will release a biography on Barack Obama under its Youth Specialties line.

Scheduled to hit stores Nov. 14, Barack Obama: An American Story by Bob Carlson and Ariele Gentiless explores the unlikely success story of the historic Democrat presidential candidate. The book is written specifically to inspire teens and empower them to change the world regardless of their circumstances, Zondervan officials said.

The biography is the second book about Obama from a Christian publisher. Thomas Nelson's The Faith of Barack Obama by Stephen Mansfield was released in August.
