John F. Kennedy America's Youngest President
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
John F. Kenndy was Americas Youngest President. John had 8 brothers and sisters. When John was in his teens, he loved to play all kinds of sports. For example, he played football, but did not make the team. In one game of football, John hurt his back very bad and had to have many surgeries. Later in life, John became very interested in politics and wanted to be a part of whatever might happen to America, so, he finally joined the Navy. On a boat with 4 other crew members and huge cruiser split the boat in half and it quickly sank. John saved 2 lives and received an award for their rescue. This book has many interesting stories about JFK's life. If you like reading books about Famous Americans, I recommend this book.
