So You Want to Be President?
Ratings4
Average rating4.3
This new version of the Caldecott-winning classic by illustrator David Small and author Judith St. George is updated with current facts and new illustrations to include our forty-second president, George W. Bush. There are now three Georges in the catalog of presidential names, a Bush alongside the presidential family tree, and a new face on the endpaper portraiture. Hilariously illustrated by Small, this celebration by St. George shows us the foibles, quirks and humanity of forty-two men who have risen to one of the most powerful positions in the world. Perfect for this election year--and every year!

This was a recommendation from our Home School in the Woods Hands-on History Activity Pak: U.S. Elections. We had fun reading now this book. With cartoon-characture art and fun facts of the presidents from Geo. Washington to Bill Clinton (including mention of impeachment) this book has lots to intrigue. I am not a fan of this type of art but my children were intrigued and entertained.
We bought this one from ThriftBooks after finding it on multiple recommended lists. In my opinion I thing the text is awesome and very appropriate for an elections or government study. As I said I'm joy crazy about this form of art, but it kid friendly.
