What Presidents are Made Of by Hanoch Piven - ADVISABLE


Piven, Hanoch What Presidents are Made Of.  Atheneum (Simon), 2012, 2004. PICTURE BOOK. $7.  

Originally published in 2004 – Now updated to contain all of our past and current presidents.  Piven has taken all of our presidents and created multimedia collages of their faces and included just a few facts about them or their presidency.  A child will find the portraits funny – an adult will find then extremely interesting.  I have  spent a lot of my time trying to figure how much each piece of the portrait is a statement about the person!  Share this with your history, government and art teachers!
