The Story of George Washington - (The Story of Biographies) by Lisa Trusiani (Paperback)

About the Book

Book Synopsis

What does it take to shape a nation--and a young mind? Introduce children to George Washington through a story that inspires courage, curiosity, and thoughtful reflection.

Long before becoming the first President of the United States, George Washington was a determined young boy from rural Virginia who loved math, animals, and testing his limits. This early reader biography--written for kids ages 6 to 9--follows his journey from farm life to the founding of a country.

Through clear storytelling and vivid details, The Story of George Washington invites young readers to see history not just as names and dates, but as choices, challenges, and values. Along the way, readers will encounter moments of triumph and integrity--as well as opportunities to consider the complicated truths of the past.

Part of the trusted The Story Of series, this biography helps children connect with history in a way that feels real, respectful, and relevant--laying the foundation for thoughtful citizenship and lifelong learning.

Discover activists, artists, athletes, and more from all across history with the rest of The Story Of series, including famous figures like: Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris.
