Donald Trump: 45th US President


                                                                                     Grades 6–12 • Biographies





                                                     The 2016 election season was like no other. Billionaire and international celebrity Donald Trump
                                                     dominated both the primaries and the general election. His reputation—as a negotiator, salesman,
                                                     reality show host, and builder of glittering skyscrapers, golf courses, and casinos—set him apart
                                                     from all of the other candidates. His campaign set him apart as well. He commanded public and
                                                     media attention via Twitter. He uttered what many considered to be outrageous statements—offending
                                                     some Americans with his comments about women, Mexican immigrants, and Muslims, and horrifying
                                                     others with his support for seemingly discredited theories. He also spoke about the need for jobs
                                                     and recapturing a way of life that seemed, to many of his supporters, to be slipping away. In Trump’s
                                                     campaign appearances, interviews, speeches, debates, and tweets, the recurring themes were: anger,
                                                     frustration, and disillusionment—a world and a way of life gone awry.
                                                       Donald Trump broke all of the rules of traditional political campaigns. Few, even in his own party,
                                                     thought he would win. But he did. Donald Trump: 45th US President explores Trump’s early life, his
                                                     formative years, his career, and the campaign that brought him into office as America’s 45th president.

          Influential Women








                                   Scientist Marie Curie conducted groundbreaking studies on radiation in the late 1800s and early 1900s. More than a century
                                   later, Pakistani teenager Malala Yousafzai overcame cultural obstacles and a bullet to the head to speak out about the need
                                   for education for young women. These two women lived in very different times and places, but their accomplishments,
                                   though not at all similar, have influenced people worldwide. Influential Women examines the lives and achievements of some
                                   of the world’s most fascinating women. Through their own words, and the words of those who have known or studied them,
                                   emerge life stories that are well worth reading about again and again.
