You
have the best chance of becoming president if your name is James, because
six presidents have been named James. It would help even more if
you were born in a log cabin because eight presidents were born in log
cabins. Do you know who was the tallest president, or who was the shortest?
Do you know which president was the most handsome, and who was the ugliest?
So You Want to be President? is an interesting book, packed with little
known facts, statistics, and humorous stories about our Presidents and
their lives in the White hose. These stories are brought to life by hilarious
illustrations. The back of the book includes a brief sketch of the last
42 presidents (George W. Bush is not included). The illustrator won the
Caldecott Medal for this book! (Jeannie Bellavance bellavance@erols.com
