With the passing of Former President Gerald Ford on December 26, 2006, the only Michiganian to ever become president, you might be interested in a publication that gives kids some information about the life of this leader. Go to the Michigan History magazine website and download the Gerald Ford issue of The Mitten for FREE. They no longer have copies to sell. http://www.michiganhistorymagazine.com/kids/mitten_topics.html Note: Scroll down to almost the bottom of the page, in the pink section, this is where you’ll find President Ford’s info. Don’t forget to d/l the teacher’s supplement also. Note: I am unable to find this copy of The Mitten. You might be able to locate some info on how to obtain it by going to http://www.hsmichigan.org/mhm/content.html
