<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The kids who grew up to be president were like a lot of other children. Some struggled with schoolwork and got into fights; others pranked their teachers and infuriated their parents. "Kid Presidents" features 20 true stories from the childhoods of American presidents.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Hilarious childhood biographies and full-color illustrations show how George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Barack Obama, and other presidents-to-be faced kid-sized problems growing up in America.</b> <p/> Every president started out as a kid! Forget the legends, tall tales, and historic achievements--before they were presidents, the future leaders of the United States had regular-kid problems just like you. <b>John F. Kennedy</b> hated his big brother. <b>Lyndon Johnson</b> pulled pranks in class. <b>Barack Obama</b> was bothered by bullies. And <b>Bill Clinton </b>was crazy clumsy (he once broke his leg jumping rope). <i>Kid Presidents</i> tells all of their stories and more with full-color cartoon illustrations on every page.
