Hail to the Chief written by Callista Gingrich and illustrated by Susan Arciero is the latest picture book in the Ellis the Elephant book series for kids. This cute little elephant is always off learning and in this book Ellis educates kids about great United States presidents of the past.
Ellis the Elephant is back, and he’s headed to the White House! In Hail to the Chief, the sixth in Callista Gingrich’s New York Times bestselling series, Ellis meets some of America’s greatest presidents and discovers how they have led our country throughout American history.
In preceding books, including Sweet Land of Liberty, Land of the Pilgrims? Pride, Yankee Doodle Dandy, From Sea to Shining Sea, and Christmas in America, Ellis learns about the pivotal moments that have shaped our nation. Now, in Hail to the Chief, this adorable pachyderm explores the fascinating lives of those who have held the nation’s highest office.
Authored by Callista Gingrich and illustrated by Susan Arciero, Hail to the Chief will delight young and old alike with a glimpse of the leaders who helped make America an exceptional nation.
Ellis goes back through time to some of our nation’s greatest presidents like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Harry Truman, Dwight Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy and more! Ellis leads us through the recountings of their accomplishments that helped make our country great. A fabulous book written in?rhyming text that gives a fun history lesson in a way kids will find interesting. I highly recommend this series as a great way to get kids ages 4 to 9 interested about history.
