American Government: Office of the President

The Office of the President handbook details the specific jobs of the president, including chief of state, chief executive, and commander-in-chief, plus the role of the president's cabinet and the limited powers of the office.

The American Government series brings five essential civics topics, political parties, the presidency, Congress, the Supreme Court, and the foundations of government, down to a reading level striving readers can actually access, without watering down the content. Written at a Hi-Lo level for grades 6-12 (approximately grade 3.5 reading level, HL320L-HL350L), each handbook uses clear, direct language and a more personal, engaging tone than a standard textbook, so students who tune out of dense civics text stay with the material instead.
