Who helps the President of the United States decide what to do? The Cabinet. But what exactly is this official group of helpers, and does the President have to take its advice?
Written in an appealing and accessible picture-book format, THE PRESIDENT'S CABINET invites readers of all ages—especially boys and girls of elementary school age—to learn how this group of presidential advisors came into being and grew in importance during our history.
A lighthearted but accurate text traces the Cabinet's development from the first four aides who served President George Washington in 1789 to the twelve men and women in President Jimmy Carter's Cabinet today—including the newest Secretary of Energy.
