Inquiring minds want to know...who was President when the first wireless signal was received from Europe in 1901?, Which President often referred to himself as a "simple country boy", and which President starred in more than 50 movies before becoming Commander in Chief? This book has all the answers and then some!
In addition to having lots of great information about each of America's President's it also covers important topics like Red vs. Blue States, Super Tuesday, Inauguration Day and what the President does all day in the Oval Office.
This is short yet informative making it enjoyable for kids of a variety of ages.
