The biography over Teddy Roosevelt (Rough Rider) explains about the life that he lived. He was the second child of Theodore Sr., and Martha Bullock Roosevelt. It tells how he felt as a child and what his plans were when he got older. Going through his life and then he became president. His father passed away and that was very devistating to him and he decided to move on with his life. He made wildlife refuges and loved to hunt animals. He started a groups called the "Rough Riders" and was very active in the group. I learned from the story that reading this book was very acurate to the textbooks that students are learning from. I had just discussed Teddy Roosevelt in my history class before I read this story, and it made it much more clear. In the classroom, I could use this story book to help the students understand a little more about Teddy Roosevelt. Going over it in the textbook doesn't cover everything that is important about him and so this book will help the learning process also. ( )
