pickWeek 11: Bios. this is such a great book with very cute fictional pictures. Young students can learn a lot about George Washington and his accomplishments through this story. Published in September 2016.
I supported Mount Vernon with a small donation, so I could receive this book!
It arrived on BOOK LOVERS DAY! 📚 (August 9)
pickTook me just over 4 months to read. It was worth every moment. I never once thought of stopping. Washington is definitely presented in a manner worthy of his place in history. He was a man driven by principle and quite fallible as a human. This is also an excellent study in leadership. Get it.
I'm gonna dive into this #chunkster. 817 pages not counting acknowledgements, notes, bibliography, and index. Might be a while before y'all see me on here again.🤣🤣🤣
Looking ahead to 2024. These are my must reads for the year. That's 10 books I hope to glean much wisdom from.
pickCastle was not impressed with this nicely sized biography of George Washington. I am glad to have a better understanding of His Excellency, and I like that the author brought up the fact that his leadership did not turn into a dictatorship (unlike most revolutionary leaders) and offered a theory but made it clear it was a theory. It has end notes, which I appreciate and was concise if not the most fascinating read.
3.5/5 a good place to start
