Book Selected:Our Country's Presidents Search Again
Content: "Bausum devotes one to three pages to each president. The book has the slick-paged, picture-rich, sound-byte presentation that children like. It also has facts, humor and trivia, which unite to give a sense of the individuals and their times. For example, Ulysses S. Grant, known for his aggressive Civil War attacks, disliked hunting and got sick in his father's tanning shop. A photo shows four men resting in the oversized bathtub that was installed in the White House after 332 pound Taft got stuck in the standard-sized one. When the forty-three presidents are described between the covers of one book, children see the overall significance of how these leaders have served and changed our country.
