The Next President

The Next President

When George Washington became the FIRST President of the United States, there were NINE future presidents already alive in America—doing things like farm chores or studying medicine. When JFK became the THIRTY-FIFTH president, there were TEN future presidents already alive in America, doing things like hosting TV shows and learning the saxophone. And right now—today!—there are at LEAST ten future presidents alive in America. They could be playing basketball, like Barack Obama, or helping in the garden, like Dwight D. Eisenhower. They could be solving math problems or reading books. They could be making art or already making change. This compelling exploration of the presidents before they were presidents—as kids, adventurers, journalists, prospectors, gun-slingers, TV hosts, and more!—brings across powerfully that the presidents of the future could be practically anyone . . . including YOU.
