The Founding Fathers!: Those Horse-Ridin', Fiddle-Playin', Book-Readin', Gun-Totin' Gentlemen Who Started America

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Barry Blitt. Irreverent portraits--in witty text, quick facts, and pen-and-ink and watercolor caricatures--of the men who fought, orated, wrote the constitution, and led the nation in its early days. Winter comically describes a "Varsity Squad" (Washington, Jefferson, etc.) and dubs lesser-known men "Junior Varsity" (including Samuel Adams and John Hancock). No index or pagination, but great material for debates. Reading list, websites.
