Summary: This book explains all of the different things about how cool it is to be the President. It explains the different and  weird things of each President til the current one( of this time) and explains the different things that happened to each while they served their term. It has humor mixed into the book. Like about how President Taft got stuck in the White House bathtub. I would use this book in my class when were going over the Presidents of the United States. It will help the children to learn them, and some may stick because some of the things about the Presidents are funny. It also in the end explains how important the Presidents job is to our country.
