This book is a combination biography/history book/craft book which may be best used in a homeschool situation.  With alternating font types and sizes, one to three paragraph blurbs about George Washington will appeal to the reader who has a hard time reading too much text in one sitting.  Black and white whimsical drawings and glossary boxes are included on each page. Interesting, little-known details about his life are included, such as the fact that his actual birthday is February 11th, but in in 1752, the British corrected their calendar and added 11 days to the year, making his new birthday February 22.  This book would be best-suited in an elementary library.
