Preview: Hear it

Young Franklin Roosevelt grew up knowing the finer things in life sailing, horseback riding, and foxhunts on his familys large estate. Growing up wealthy meant he could live a gentlemans life, like his beloved papa. Yet gentlemen werent supposed to go into politics, right? But why not? As young Franklin learns from a famous uncle and a famous mentor, there is more to the world than he thought. And about politics? Well, maybe there is more to that, too. Complete with lively illustrations by new illustrator Britt Spencer, this third book in Judith St. Georges Turning Point series reveals the turning point for the young man who would become one of Americas most honored presidents.
