Mattern is the author of many books for children. Her favorite topics include animals, biography, and history. She lives in the Hudson Valley of New York State.
This picture book collection of mini first-lady biographies is a nice introduction into learning a bit about each president's wife. They are written in a way that elementary age students can understand and they have many memorable and interesting facts. I would absolutely encourage any parent or educator to read the entire series in order with their children to aid them in U.S. and Presidential history. My daughter and I have both learned so much and have greatly enjoyed them.
