1: Presidential Elections
This was the best book ever! It did a good job of explaining the Electoral College. I liked the map of the US representing the number of Electorial votes each state has. The Winners Who Lost was informative and interesting. Order of Succession was a good reminder and learning about the nine times VP becomes president. Like the Electorial College information I liked having a complete list of all the presidents.

2: False information
I won't even buy this book because in browsing the exerpt, I found a significant fallacy. The United States is NOT a democracy. It is a Republic. Big difference and one we should all understand. Go back and read your constitution...or better yet, learn the Pledge of Allegiance.

3: Terrific!
Syl Sobel has taken a complicated subject and made it understandable and interesting for the elementary school student. This book is easy to read, with short chapters and filled with a ton of information. It also includes a lot of fun facts that everyone will enjoy about different presidents, their wives and some of our more interesting elections. A wonderful resource with a glossary, index and bibliography.
