I have a two-page report due on Monday!!!
American President: A Reference Resource at http://millercenter.org/president
Plot: The Miller Center provides this online resource about all American Presidents. Each president has his own page listing basic information as well as a brief review of the presidency's highlights. Additionally, the pages include links to the presidents' life before and after their term. The pages also offer links about the specific president's family, cabinet, running mates, and speeches.
Genre: History, Websites
Reading Level: Some of the text is elaborate, but it remains fairly accessible.
Similar Titles: The Presidents: The Whitehouse, POTUS --Presidents of the United States
Personal Thoughts: The title seems fairly simplistic at first, but offers an almost overwhelming amount of information. It is an ideal resource for someone seeking a better understanding of the presidency. Or a tween stuck with a little-known president for a school paper (I always got the really obscure or unpopular ones. Always.).
