Citizen in Chief - The Second Lives of the American Presidents
Eight presidents died in office, leaving 34 whose subsequent careers make up this remarkably revealing history. Journalists Benardo and Weiss (coauthors of Brooklyn by Name) point out that America's founders believed pensions smacked of royal privilege, so ex-presidents were on their own. Some have handled the transition more gracefully than others.
PreSchool-Bright colors and cartoon critters invite preschoolers to enjoy this book of sounds. Twenty creatures, both feathered and furry, are on their way to raid the fruits and vegetables in the farmer's pickup. Each page features two animals at a time as they hurry to the feast. The farmer comes to shoo them away, but only after they've eaten their fill. They scatter and talk about what a great day it's been as they settle down for the night. The first line of the large-print text on each page is the sound each beast makes, and the second line rhymes with the first. The watercolor illustrations on white backgrounds are full of action and personality.
