"This volume invites us to consider what reading is for, as well as who has access to its offerings and who does not. It is instructive to learn what the presidents read in their childhood and what books they still treasure as adults. With a reach both wide and deep, this literary and pictorial quilt stitches many connections among presidents, books, children, and the people who came to define a nation."
