Synopsis
A Smithsonian book that lets you mix and match the faces and philosophies of your favorite presidents
This interactive volume allows people of all ages to gain a new perspective on the American presidency, from George Washington to George W. Bush. Starting with twenty-four portraits of America's favorite commanders in chief, each cut into five sections — forehead, eyes, nose, mouth, and chin — the reader can reposition the features to create a wealth of amusing and unique composites. Biographies of the featured leaders, famous quotations reflecting their political views, and a time line of the American presidents make this a useful reference as well as a fun game that will bring hours of enjoyment to anyone who has ever wanted to put a new face on the American presidency.

June 02, 2009: "Make Your Own President" is a fun presentation of quotes and philosophies of past presidents of the United States. It also provides a brief political-life synopsis for each president at the back. It's a good way for children to access the former presidents of the Nation.

March 16, 2009: We found it surprising that the presidents were not in order. It seems that would be a good secondary benefit, to learn them in succession. There were also a few pages out of sync. All in all it was a fun book, but it seems they missed a couple opportunities for a better product.
