Jack's Path of Courage: The Life of John F. Kennedy (A Big Words Book, 5)

A "beautifully illustrated and gracefully told" (School Library Journal) portrait of a beloved, courageous president. John F. Kennedy was a popular, charismatic president, beloved by many. But he didn't always believe he had the strength or courage for that office. As a child, he was sickly and also overshadowed by his strong, capable, athletic older brother Joe. After Joe Jr.'s death, John had to work hard to live up to his own expectations and to those of his father. He overcame pain and self-doubt to see the country through one of the most difficult crises in its history. In this enriching introduction to the life of the 35th president of the United States, Doreen Rappaport combines real-life quotes with her own lyrical prose to create a moving portrait of a beloved figure, while Matt Tavares' stunning artwork vividly depicts this unique time in history.
