Max for President

Max for President is a delightful picture book that introduces young readers to the concept of elections through the relatable story of two friends, Max and Kelly, vying for class president. The book humorously depicts the campaign process, from making posters to giving speeches, and culminates in a vote. Beyond the laughs, it gently emphasizes the importance of fairness, participation, and, crucially, good sportsmanship, regardless of the election's outcome. It's an excellent resource for parents looking to open conversations about civic duties and how to handle competition gracefully.

From the author of National Book Award finalist Hey, Kiddo. Max thinks that he would like to be class president. So does Kelly. But there can only be one president! Who will the class elect? Full of laughs and suspense, Max for President is a lively story of good sportsmanship—and a great way for kids to learn a little about elections, too!
