Love this book!

My almost 7 year old daughter LOVES this book. I picked it up at the library for her a couple of weeks ago and she's been spouting out random facts about the first ladies and reading it every chance she gets.

Little Girls Love This Book!

We've had this book for years and our daughters still delight in looking at the whimsical pictures and reading about the first ladies. Because this book is so much fun to look at children learn without feeling like it is a chore. What a great investment!

Fun & Educational

Written in an easy to read format, this book will be read over and over again. Bought as a companion to Smart About the Presidents, they go together very well and my daughters ages 8 & 5 love both these books. I

Smart about the First Ladies

I bought this book for my 1st-grade daughter and she loves it! Each time we read this book, she selects a new favorite first lady. It is not the best history book ever written, but it has sparked a young childs interest in history and learning about our country.

Cute and Easy to Read!
