Abstract

The content contained the good, the bad, and the ugly of Reagan's life but scaled down so a child could, with adult guidance, begin to relate.

The oldest president ever, he survived a near-fatal assassination attempt and lived to be 93. Who Was Ronald Reagan? covers his life and times in a balanced, entertaining way for children. More than 100 black-and-white illustrations fill out the portrait of our fortieth president.

A great biography for a great president. How it discussed adult topics but in a kid friendly way. The book allowed the parent to control and guide topics with their younger kiddos.
