Book Reviews of Smart About the First Ladies: Smart About History

Book Review: Caution
Summary: 5 Stars

My daughters absolutely love the "Smart About" book series. The First Ladies is no exception. We bought this book when my daughters were in first grade, and they loved the book so much they wanted to bring it to school. One of my daughters was reading to the class. She would call out and ask, "What first lady do you want to hear about?"

Well, when they got to Hillary Clinton she read "...But when Bill was unfaithful and then lied about it..." I was mortified when her teacher came to me with the delightful anecdote of trying to divert the conversation, and the political debates that ensued in that first grade classroom.

So, buy this book, but keep it at home.

Summary of Smart About the First Ladies: Smart About History

For every president, there has been a first lady, sometimes two. Who were these women? How has the job of First Lady (unpaid and unelected) changed over time? The Smart About format proves just right for covering history in an easy, appealing way.
