Review
Overall I thought it was a very informational book. I especially loved the photos that were used to help illustrate the story I feel like they’re something that can help catch a younger reader’s attention. When it comes to this book I would definitely recommend it for intermediate readers.
Classroom Ideas:
1. Discuss what children would do if they met Andrew Jackson.
2. Let children talk about other historical figures they like.
3. Compare Andrew Jackson to other presidents. ( )
