Action Presidents #1

A powerhouse George Washington — powdered wig, gold-epauletted military coat, and a clenched fist ready for action — dominates the cover of this 2018 HarperCollins opener to the Action Presidents series, rendered in Ryan Dunlavey's bold, energetic style. Writer Fred Van Lente and artist Dunlavey promise "Real History! Fake Jokes!" in telling the life of the first president, making this a genuinely fun entry point for readers of any age who want their civics lessons with a little swagger. It's history class reimagined as something you'd actually want to read.
