Summary, Etc. What's weird about U.S. presidents? Plenty! From Abraham Lincoln's knack for gross pranks to Benjamin Harrison's fear of electricity, you'll discover weird but true facts about our nation's leaders -- updated to include our most recent presidents and a special feature on presidential pets! Did you know that Ulysses S. Grant got a speeding ticket riding his horse -- twice? Or that President McKinley had a pet parrot that whistled "Yankee Doodle Dandy" duets with him? This updated installment in the Weird But True! Know-It-All series is a guide to U.S. presidents, their lives, work, and -- of course -- some of the silliest and weirdest things about them. Like Nixon's insistence on wearing a suit at all times, even at the beach, or Obama's secret life as a comic nerd! This expanded edition features a brand-new profile on President Biden, additional information about the Trump presidency and the 2024 election, as well as a roundup of famous first pets. Get ready to learn about the most influential people in our country's past, and how they have shaped our future.
