The Founding Fathers! by Jonah Winters illustrated by Barry Blitt

Mr. Winters presents each gentleman with two fact boxes.  The top box contains a overview paragraph of the person and his contributions.  Also in this fact box are famous quote.
Then the bottom fact box offers information about the gentleman's height, weight, shoe size, jobs held, education, hobbies, wealth, nickname, political party, human slaves owned, position on slavery, religious faith, achievements etc.
Interesting and at times, humorous.
Great book to utilize when studying beginnings of our country.
Older students (grades 4th-7th) would appreciate it the most.
