James Madison,

This review is from: Father of the Constitution: A Story about James Madison (Creative Minds Biography) (Paperback)
This book was fascinating. My previous understanding of James Madison was that he caved to political pressure and started the War of 1812. When I read about his thoughtful and brilliant additions to our Constitution, I realized *again* how special our founding fathers were.
2.0 out of 5 stars
Disappointing,

This review is from: Father of the Constitution: A Story About James Madison (Creative Minds Biographies) (Kindle Edition)
This book is more for elementary school-aged children -- very simplistic and overly broad. Almost in line with the Dick and Jane series.

Over priced book,

This review is from: Father of the Constitution: A Story about James Madison (Creative Minds Biography) (Hardcover)
This is the most over priced book I've ever purchased. The only good thing about it is the print is so large you won't need your reading glasses. It's 60 pages of pre-school level reading.
