Have You Heard about Lady Bird?: Poems about Our First Ladies Hardcover -

by Marilyn Singer; Nancy Carpenter (Illustrator); Text by (Art/Photo Books) Nancy Carpenter

A beautifully illustrated companion to "Rutherford B., Who Was He?: Poems About Our Presidents" featuring entertaining poems about the First Ladies of the United States. Detailed back matter includes short biographies, quotations, and more. Full color.


From the publisher

The role of First Lady has been defined differently by each woman who's held it, but all of them left an impact on our nation as partner of the commander in chief. Incisive poetry by Marilyn Singer and energetic art by Nancy Carpenter provide a fascinating glimpse into the lives of women-from Martha Washington to Eleanor Roosevelt to Lady Bird Johnson-who variously embraced the position and shied away from it, craved the spotlight and fiercely guarded their privacy, took controversial stands and championed for the status quo. Detailed back matter includes short biographies, quotations, and more.
