Politico reports this morning that First Lady Michelle Obama will be out in April 2012 with a book, as yet untitled, that "will tell the story of the garden she has established on the South Lawn of the White House and explore how improved access to fresh, locally grown food can promote healthier eating habits for families and communities."
Crown Publishing Group at Random House says in a release: "Mrs. Obama accepted no advance for the book and will donate all proceeds to a charity or charities to be named later."

Good for her. You can think anything you want about her politics, but it seems to me that there are a lot of things that Michelle Obama could have done with her time in the White House. She’s fighting the good fight, not trying to regulate what peoples eat, but simply create awareness and help people - especially kids - understand the connection between food and health.
