Presidential Elections and Other Cool Facts by Syl
Sobel, Jill Wood (Illustrator)
Here's a brand new, informative and fun-to-read book for elementary
school use, written by the author of the recently published "How
the U.S. Government Works." This text outlines the legal requirements
for electing a president, as spelled out in the U.S. Constitution. Kids
also learn about voter eligibility, the Electoral College, political
third parties, and rules and practices related to campaigning for the
presidential office. More fascinating facts abound throughout the book,
and include the birthplaces of all presidents, the youngest and oldest
men elected to the presidency, the vice presidents who stepped in to
fill the remaining terms of a previous president, the presidential election
that a major newspaper got wrong, and lots more. This book is written
on a level that is most helpful to students in the 4th and 5th grades.
