Duck For President

This book is awesome for parents and kids.

Book Description

My fellow Americans:

It is our pleasure, our honor, our duty as citizens to present to you Duck for President. Here is a duck who began in a humble pond. Who worked his way to farmer. To governor. And now, perhaps, to the highest office in the land.

Some say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he is a duck.

We say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he will be the next president of the United States of America.

Thank you for your vote.

This book rocks and is great for teaching young children about the election process. From the School Library Journal Review:

"Cronin's text is hilarious for kids and adults and includes a little math and quite a bit about the electoral process."

We had (Warner TV) Animaniacs fever around here for several years.
