Teachers
and Homeschoolers, as you know the Presidential election looms and now
that there's a narrowing of candidates we thought it was time to create a
list of books for children about the current candidates: Clinton and
Trump.
Surprisingly there are no reading-leveled books on Mr. Trump so you will have to gather supplemental material for him.
Should
he win we suppose that will be corrected. For now, here are the books
we've found about Hillary Clinton at the Third Grade reading level.
[There are no books at easier levels.]
