Full of fun facts and humor, this book is the U.S. presidents raw and in their full glory. Your Presidential Fantasy Dream Team will make you rethink every president that you ever learned about--were they actually nice, or did they have a mean side? Unlike history books that make you somehow forget every person in the middle, this nonfiction fully illustrates every ex-prez's personality clear and true--from brainy Jefferson to sneaky Arthur to ambitious Nixon. Even the more unrecognizable presidents--such as Polk or Truman--seem to burst out of the pages with their vivid personalities and the funny illustrations. If you ever have trouble with memorizing prez names, this is the book for you! Highly rewarding.
