Kids Book Weekend: Post 2

Title: Kid in Chief
Author: Paul Maguire
Genre: Kids book, easy reader, early chapter book
Page Count: 80 pages


Bobby Barton joins his third grade class on a field trip to Washington DC. While there, Bobby Barton discovers an unknown clause it the constitution, stating that if you beat the President in checkers, you can become the President.  Thus starts Bobby's journey to the Presidency.  

This was a cute story with an educational aspect that would make it fun to add to an American History class in school.  I think kids would enjoy the silly antics of Bobby and have fun imagining what they would do if they suddenly had to power to make laws, and do whatever they wanted.
