Book Reviews of Smart About the Presidents (Smart About History)
Book Review: great elementary intro to presidents
Summary: 5 Stars
My 7 yr old daughter is in 1st grade. She got this book after she had already learned the names of the 43 presidents in order, along w/several facts (some trivial) about each. Still she poured over it to compare what she had studied w/what the book said. The small size, paperback nature, reading level, & casual drawings (like an elementary class project) make it VERY KID FRIENDLY. I understand that some adults might disagree w/which key details of each presidency were included or excluded, & that some info might be too simplified. I think the point is to understand the target audience for this book is elementary school children who will have a chance to study/grasp more in depth material later. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND it for the right audience.
Summary of Smart About the Presidents (Smart About History)
The kids in Ms. Brandt's class are doing another group report-this time on all forty-three presidents of the United States, one per page. The book is current through the 2004 presidential election and includes two fill-in pages for kids to record its outcome. There is also a floor plan of the White House, a list of presidential perks, and lots of interesting info about all the presidents, from George Washington to George W. Each page is jam-packed with trivia, fun facts, handwritten captions, and information on the historical events of each presidency. Written by a team of well-known author/artists, this 64-page Smart About book is a great resource for kids.General Books
