Oprah Winfrey

Issue #2

Hello Tiny Maverick 👋

Today I'm going to share a story about how Oprah Winfrey turned her love of learning and helping others into a shining star of inspiration and generosity.

Oprah Winfrey was born in a small place called Mississippi in America.

She didn't have much growing up, but she loved to read and learn new things.

She worked very hard in school and got a special prize that paid for her to go to college!

Oprah’s curiosity led to her becoming a TV news host. She then created her own TV show called "The Oprah Winfrey Show".

It wasn’t long before it became everyone’s favourite show on television.

Oprah also became very famous because of her TV network, her books, and the movies she made.

Even though she started to make lots of money, she didn’t let this change the way she treated people.

She used her money to help other people, like giving it to schools and charities.

Even now, Oprah is very popular and has changed the lives of lots of people.

But she never forgets where she came from and always tells other people to work hard and follow their dreams too.

With her big heart and kind words, Oprah Winfrey brightens up the world and inspires others to do the same.
