Reach for this book when your child starts to see historical figures as untouchable or boring statues rather than real people with quirks and passions. Hanoch Piven uses ingenious collage art made of everyday objects like lightbulbs, boxing gloves, and jellybeans to reveal the specific personality traits and historical anecdotes of American presidents. It is a brilliant tool for making the abstract concept of leadership feel tangible and human. While the format looks like a picture book, the clever visual metaphors and trivia make it perfect for elementary aged children. It encourages readers to look beyond the surface and see how unique interests and flaws can shape a person's identity and legacy. It is a celebration of individuality that happens to be a history lesson in disguise.
