Presidential Blocks and Children's Book Set
It’s never too early to learn the history of our great country! This Children’s Presidential Blocks and Books Set is a good place to start! The full set of Uncle Goose Presidential Blocks contains information on all 44 presidents. Each beautifully illustrated block has the details about the president, and the entire set comes together to create an American flag. 

The first of three books in this set is A is for Abigail: An Almanac of Amazing American Women by Lynne Cheney. It brings the great women of American history to life, and is filled to the brim with words and pictures that celebrate the remarkable achievements of American women.

America the Beautiful, illustrated by Chris Gall, great-great-grandnephew of Katharine Lee Bates, the women who wrote “America the Beautiful.” This book pay homage to a beloved anthem, and Gall enhances these timely lyrics with historical and contemporary imagery. Musical notation and an author’s note, as well as the son’s words written in Bates’s own hand, are also included in this book for all ages.

And Grandmother Remembers, Christmas at the White House by Mary Evans Seeley, is an easy introduction to our presidents, beginning with Calvin Coolidge. It presents them as real people with their own traditions and historical milieu. How the First Family celebrates the most popular holiday in the land makes for an important story for young readers and listeners.
