Duck for President
Author: Doreen Cronin
Illustrator: Betsy lewin
Genre: Fantasy
Grade level: K-2
Farmer brown always has a lot of work to do. The animals have chores that they have to do. Duck didn't like to do chores and made a sign to hold an election for the farm. Farmer brown ran to the barn and saw that they were registering to vote. On election day duck won and farmer brown demanded a recount and the voters still voted Duck. Duck was eventually the owner of the farm but he did not like it at all. They started to work on ducks campaign for governor. Duck won governor. He didn't like being governor so he decided to campaign for president. Duck wins president. Being president wasn't fun. He saw that a duck was needed at the farm. He decided to go back to the farm and duck worked on his autobiography.
I could use this book in numerous different ways in the classroom. We could use this book for a math lesson because there is a lot of counting and big numbers involved. I could also use this book when we learn about the justice system and how to vote. It can highlight the importance of registering to vote and voting for the future of our country.
The illustrations are very fun and colorful. Their is some white space in between the words but that adds interest to the pages and really makes the illustrations pop out. The drawings are cartoon style and very cute!
