In celebration of President's Day KBN is sharing a very cool National Geographic guide to the presidents of the United States.
This book will be donated to Avenue of Life.
Title: National Geographic Our Country’s Presidents
Author: Ann Bausum
Publisher: National Geographic
ISBN: 9781426326851
Review:
One by one readers will be
introduced to the many presidents that have had a chance to make our country
what it is today. It all started when a group of men held a meeting and voted
in George Washington, the very first president of the United States.
This guide shares timelines
of the presidents in chronological order. Each profile is key to the history of
each president including their family background, childhood, education, their
careers before the presidency and election highlights. There are reproductions
of portraits and photos. Fact boxes are on each page and provide quick
reference and insight for nicknames, important dates and landmarks. There are a
few dozen page spreads to help with the understanding of U.S. history and the
operation of the federal government and also the working of the Electoral
College. Reference aids provide summaries of the U.S. election history and
information on other resources to help further educate readers about our
countries presidents and the election processes.
Parents and teachers will
value this guide as a tool for education and general learning. Readers who are
intrigued about history and politics will be engaged with the photos and even
learning about the children who have spent time in the White House.
