Horn Book (Thu Aug 01 00:00:00 CDT 2002)

With margins designed to resemble webpages, these volumes contain information about a president's life and achievements, as well as links to related websites. The writing is rushed and uninteresting; sadly, the suggested sites will probably contain more stimulating material. The books are illustrated with photos and reproductions of computer images and include timelines. There are twelve other spring 2002 books in this series. Bib., ind. [Review covers these titles: Abraham Lincoln, John Quincy Adams, Calvin Coolidge, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jimmy Carter.]
