Description
Young readers of all ages will love this story about President Thomas Jefferson, who found his passion as soon as he learned to read: books, books, and more books!
Before, during, and after the American Revolution, Jefferson collected thousands of books on hundreds of subjects. In fact, his massive collection eventually helped rebuild the Library of Congress—now the largest library in the world.
Author Barb Rosenstocks rhythmic words and illustrator John OBriens whimsical illustrations capture Jeffersons zeal for the written word as well as little-known details about book collecting. An authors note, bibliography, and source notes for quotations are also included.
