THE SCHOLASTIC ENCYLOPEDIA OF THE PRESIDENTS AND THEIR TIMES documents the tenure of each of the American presidents. It also includes information about the headlines, people, and fads that defined America during each presidency. It is an easy-to-use resource that reflects events through the election of the next president in the 2012 election.
Each profile includes a fact box that lists the president's birthday, birthplace, vice president, wife, children, and nickname. It also lists the president's full name and years he was in office. It is an easy-to-understand guide that traces our Presidential history from the beginning to the future.

Great for homework, this nice effort includes a couple of large pages on each United States president, headlines from his administration, neat trivia (Herbert Hoover was the first president to have an asteroid named for him. Abe Lincoln was the first to wear a beard in office), a context in popular culture from Johnny Appleseed to virtual reality, and plenty of solid history in clear English. It's a wonderful jumping-off place for an emerging historian or a child curious about who is that guy on the U.S. dime. (For ages 10-11 and up and a great reference for the whole family)
A nationally recognized author, speaker, and historian, David Rubel writes enduring books of American history. His collaborators have included Pulitzer Prize-winners Joseph J. Ellis and James M. McPherson, Archivist of the United States Allen Weinstein, and President Jimmy Carter.
