From the duo who created the classroom Kirkus Reviews called "a charmed place" comes a patriotic primer for picture-book readers.
Today at school we celebrated Presidents' Day by putting on a play. Mrs. Madoff said I could be George Washington because his birthday is the same as mine. Charlie was Abraham Lincoln because he's the tallest kid in our class. Everyone else had very important parts to play, too. At the end of the day we voted for class president, and you'll never guess who won!
Anne and Lizzy Rockwell have collaborated on all the Mrs. Madoff books, including St. Patrick's Day and Presidents' Day , and Who Lives in an Alligator Hole in the Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science series. Anne is the author of What's So Bad About Gasoline ; Brendan and Belinda and the Slam Dunk! ; Why Are the Ice Caps Melting ; and Only Passing Through: The Story of Sojourner Truth . Lizzy is the author-illustrator of Good Enough to Eat ; The Busy Body Book ; and Hello Baby! Both Anne and Lizzy live in Connecticut.
