The President's Stuck in the Bathtub: Poems About the Presidents is exactly what it sounds like it is a picture book of poems about each of the presidents all the way from the first president George Washington to the current president Barrack Obama. The book has historical facts about each presidents along with funny ones that children will relate to and be able to remember the presidents by. Along with the poem the book has an illustration of each president and a caption of a historical fact that relates to the president and the poem. Kids would really like this book and would be able to learn a lot of good information from reading the poems.
I have already used the book The President's Stuck in the Bathtub: Poems About the Presidents in a lesson I taught to my second graders. I taught about our community leaders so I picked out a few of the poems and did a read aloud to the students to introduce them to different presidents and teach them about what they did as president. I think that the students liked the poems and thought they were mostly funny but I think the learned something from them too, I will use this book in my own classroom again one day.
