Max for President
PreSchool-Grade 2–In this timely tale, Krosoczka gives a simple overview of how campaigns and elections work. When their teacher announces that it is time to elect a new class president, Max and Kelly decide to run. Both children create posters, distribute buttons, and make promises about what they will do if elected. After the ballots are counted and Kelly wins, she chooses Max to be her vice president, showing readers that no president can do the job alone. Together, they accomplish good things for their school. The colorful cartoon artwork features shades of red, white, and blue that match the theme nicely. The characters' expressive faces reveal the ups and downs of the experience. Given the upcoming election, this story is sure to be a hit.–Kelley Rae Unger, Peabody Institute, MACopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
