Barack Obama (National Geographic Readers) Reviews
-
In 2014 president Barack Obama makes JUNETEENTH a NATIONAL holiday. According to legendary tales, Juneteenth is thee oldest documented celebration commemorating the ending of slavery in the u.s. Dating back to 1865 it is documented on June 19th that Union Soldiers led by Major General Gordon Granger, lands at Galveston Texas with news that the WAR has ended and the EN$LAVED ARE now released! This was 2.5 years AFTER the emancipation proclamation signed by the 16th president 1-1-1863 and folks tell all Caucasian slave masters kept the news QUiET from Black Field Workers for cultivating purposes. Minority families in the 50s/60s worked overtime in them cottonwood fields. Fasting forward to u.s. 44th president, a former u.s. president possible him being the first black president. News you can use!

I am always impressed with these National Geographic Kids picture book biographies. Each has interesting easy to follow text, lovely photographs, vocabulary builders, maps, a time-line, and a quiz about the covered material. This edition gives a look into the life of Barack Obama, our nation's 44th president.
