Founding father George Washington's boyhood defined our first
president--see how in this picture book biography.
As a boy, with the help of his teachers, George Washington created a
list of the values of civility that he wanted to live by:
1. When another speaks, be attentive yourself and disturb not the
audience.
2. Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own
reputation, for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company.
This richly illustrated picture book is based on that little-known
historical document and chronicles George Washington's life from boyhood
to his extraordinary leadership position as the first President of the
United States of America.
