Kid Presidents
Kid Presidents: True Tales of Childhood from America's Presidents | David Stabler
3 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
Forget the legends. Ignore the tall tales. The kids who grew up to be president weren’t superheroes. They had regular-kid problems just like you. John F. Kennedy hated his big brother. Lyndon Johnson pulled pranks in class. Barack Obama was bothered by bullies. And Bill Clinton was crazy clumsy (he once broke his leg jumping rope). Kid Presidents tells all of their stories and more with fullcolor cartoon illustrations on every page. History has never been this much fun!

This B book written by David Stabler and illustrated by Doogie Horner tells the hilarious and true stories of the childhoods of our U.S. presidents. This is a great book to get kids interested about U.S. history. It is always a plus when you can hit on multiple subjects in one lesson, which this book does. I think this would be a great book to get students into groups to a do RT chapter by chapter.

Mwinship I would use this RT rubric to score students‘ performances: http://www.readwritethink.org/classroom-resources/printouts/readers-theatre-rubr...
The UDL principle 1.1 of customizing information and the ESOL 2 & 28 of promoting cooperation and providing biographies of significant country leaders align with this book. #UCFLAE3414F19
