Lives of the Presidents
Krull

What did the presidents of the United States do for fun? What were their favorite foods? What were their nicknames and favorite pets? And how did they take care of their hair? Every U.S. president is the focus of public scrutiny, but how well do we know these men? What kind of fathers do presidents make? Husbands? Neighbors? Other books focus on the historical achievements of those who have occupied our country's highest office; Lives of the Presidents looks instead at their bad habits, silly nicknames, and strange pets. Every president - from George Washington to Bill Clinton - is included, with an emphasis on those who have had the greatest impact on history. Discover their high points, low points, and the times in between. In this stunning addition to their acclaimed series, Kathleen Krull and Kathryn Hewitt take us beyond politics and photo opportunities, revealing the entertaining, complex, and very real lives of the presidents. Kathleen Krull is well known for her innovative, award-winning nonfiction for young readers. She is a book reviewer and former children's books editor. Ms. Krull lives in San Diego, California. Kathryn Hewitt has illustrated the previous books in the Lives of the ... series as well as picture books for younger readers. She lives in Santa Monica, California.
