What Is a Presidential Election?: 2024 Edition (What Was?)
L**S
Not 100% neutral as hoped
We homeschool our son, who lives in a house divided, politically. I was hoping for a totally neutral book on pres elections for a unit study of obvious extra-significance right now. I’m thumbing through the materials I’ve gathered for a unit on elections, civics, constitution. This book, as another reviewer noted, cites that Biden seeks re-election. Oops! But more disappointingly, I also agree that it leans a hair left. How? By semi-subtly making comments that put people in a negative light, namely Trump. Was it so much to ask for a totally unbiased book? I thought it wasn’t as this series usually delivers well in that regard. But I was wrong and for the first time this gives me pause about buying more books from them. My son can handle that and it’ll be a good talking point (about TDS, haha), but I felt I should mention it in case this is a deal breaker for another family.

Left Leaning
Focused on left views without much input of different views between the parties. Several digs to the right. No real context on right leaning views. Cool stickers. Would not recommend for educational purposes if you are trying to teach a non biased format.

Outdated already
As of this past week, this book is outdated. On page 3 it says Joe Biden is running for President in 2024. Also, it has a slight Liberal lean in the book.
