I have learned that Jefferson was only fourteen years old when his dad died. I learned more as I went along and keept reading this book. I knew that he was the author of the Declaration of Independence. I learned that he lost against John Adams the first time he ran for president. I think it was amazing because I learned more about Jefferson. I loved this book, and I hope to read another biography about a president.

I checked this out from the library, but it was such a nice book on Thomas Jefferson that I'd like to buy it for our home library.
