This book is very informative. From learning about who JFK was named after, to the brief information about his naval career, and even learning that he saved a man's life, readers will learn a lot of information about his life and family.

This Book displayed everything about the life of John, and I believe this book is one of the best out of the Who Is/Was franchise, this book did help me understand 60's American politics, and how this would lead to the unfortunate demise of John F. Kennedy. I would reccomend this book to people over the age of 13, as this would be more interesting for those ages.

A good read. There was definitely a lot that I didn’t know about JFK. I will say, this book didn’t seem as information packed as the other books of this series - maybe that’s just me. This was another book where I really didn’t like the inner illustrations of. Definitely too difficult for my students to read, so I’ll probably part with this book.

Cute book. The illustration of jfk on the front isn’t very flattering…. Lol. I knew most of the things listed in this book- except for the fact that Jackie rejected JFK at first! Lol!

This was a very educational book. I found myself fascinated by JFK's childhood and learning about all his siblings. Also liked seeing how this book portrayed his death. :-) great book for kids in school, needing to know facts :-) reading it a second time found me understanding more and wanting me to take every detail about him in. One thing that I found interesting was that I didn't know presidents could vote. Very interesting!

This illustrated biography of John Fitzgerald Kennedy is absolutely informational, brilliant, and very intriguing! J.F.K. nicknamed "Jack" had a hard time in his childhood. Growing up, his mom wasn't around much so it gave him an even harder time. Despite the fact that he had scarlet fever as a child and would get sick every now and then throughout his life, he saved lifes during the World War II. He later then became the 35th president of the United States. I think that this book is filled with excitement, heart-ache, love, and courage. This well-developed, non-fiction biography will glue your eyes to every page. I highly recommened this book to anyone who is looking to read a fun filled, deep, and passionate story of a boy who becomes a man.

New Book Review 1:

Can you imagine being in a big Jewish family that were discriminated in America. That is what happened to John F. Kennedy. He didn't care about him being Jewish or in a big family. He passed them and become the 35th president of the United States.

From reading the title, picture, and the back I can tell that the book will tell us readers about John F. Kennedy. Also how he would always be in his older brothers shadow, the first catholic and youngest president. Lastly how he was a WW|| hero who saved his shipwrecked crewmen in the Pacific Ocean.

As I read this book and connect to my life, it reminds me of myself as a big brother and how my little brother wants to be like me and how we are a big family to other people. This makes me wanna make my brother to be a different and unique person instead of copying other people's life's.


There's a question I have been asking throughout my whole reading time, and I yet haven't find an accurate answer for it. My question is: Why isn't he thankful of who he is? Because he studied in Harvard and is a war hero in World War ||.





Book Review 1:



The book is about John F. Kennedy and his whole life. He lived with a big Jewish family. He was a skinny, sickly boy always in the shadow of his brother. Lastly he was the first Catholic president, and also the youngest man ever elected. I thought that the book was really interesting and entertaining. I like the book because it had a lot of connections to my life. Like how I live in a big family.

It was very excited to see how this would all end at the end of this book. He became President and had 2 kids that loved him very much. He died in Dallas,Texas and that was the hard part for the kids and his wife to see him go just like that.

John F Kennedy was the president of the United States and was assassinated by some random dude.

That’s all I knew about him. After I read this book I learned so much more than that. Like:

He was the first Catholic president.

Also the youngest.

He saved many lives.

Fine. I’ll stop. But you should read it
