Top 10 Books Learning About The President

When it comes to learning about people specifically presidents in this case the books that I have come to know that students love to read are the Who was books. These books are nonfiction and tell all about the person the book is about. Below I will list a few of these books as some that students would read to learn about a president or how to become a president.

1. 
Who was Abraham Lincoln? This is a nonfiction book telling about Lincoln's life from an early age to when he was shot at Ford's Theater. It is a great read to get accurate information on our past president.

2. 
Who Was George Washington? This is a nonfiction book about George Washington and how he was the first president of the United States and what he did during his time of service.

3. 
Who Was Thomas Jefferson? This is a nonfiction book describing how Thomas Jefferson came about writing the Declaration of Independence and other important things he did as president of the United States.

4. 
Kid Presidents: True Tales of Childhood from America's Presidents is a book about how the past and present presidents were just kids at one point just like our students are. This book will help the students learn important facts but also teacher them to have goals and thrive to be the next president!

5. 
Presidents' Day is about how the students put on a play using facts about the presidents lives and the amazing things that have accomplished.

6. 
Who Was Ronald Reagan? This is a book all about Reagan's movie making days to his days in office as the oldest president ever.

7. 
Our Country's Presidents: All You Need to Know About the Presidents, From George Washington to Barak Obama is a book mostly for older students. It seems to be a lot of reading but useful information. It could be used for younger students if the teacher taught a small section of the book at a time to the class or something like that I would think.

8. 
Presidential Elections and Other Cool Facts is a book teaching kids about who can run for president, what an electoral college is and a lot of other useful facts about what it takes to be a president. It is important to know about our presidents but also important to know how the process works.

9. 
If I Ran For President is a book telling what it would be like to run for president. It talks about how you would have to work hard, study the world's problems, have a running mate, and debate other people running for president!

10. 
Vote is a book on how voting has changed through out time and how it works. This is for older students as well but it is a very reliable source.

All of these books are a resource for a teacher to use when teaching students reliable facts about a president, how to become a president, how to vote or how any other processes in history helped lead us to they type of systems we have today. Students that are younger truly enjoy the Who was books and find them fun to read. This is surprising due to the fact the books are nonfiction but if we can get the students reading nonfiction books at a young age and enjoying it then I say we can make a difference in their learning!
