Here's a quick tour through the presidents of the United States, starting with George Washington and ending with the current president, Barack Obama. The breezy tone, with its rapid-fire, question-and-answer format, matches the informal, colorful illustrations. Note: a couple of the cartoonish pictures show the president (in one case Taft, in another Fillmore) in the bathtub. Of course you can't present a lot of information in just a few pages, but the author has managed to present interesting snippets about each president's life and/or time in office, including a brief quotation.
A timeline runs through the pages with items of interest and historical consequence. The book includes a table of the presidents and their vice presidents. While the book is aimed at six- to ten-year-olds, the information is provided in an amusing way that will add interest to any study of the presidents.
