Description
This is a story about how a little boy grew up to be president. It's a story of hope and courage. It's a story about the power of words. And it is a story that has been told many times, in many voices.
Acclaimed picture-book biographer Jonah Winter offers his own voice and memories about JFK and his significance in this heartfelt personal profile, illustrated in vibrant detail by AG Ford.
