Fergus and Zeke for President

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Can classroom mice Fergus and Zeke work together to finish their project on American presidents—even when Zeke gets bossy?

It’s Presidents’ Day, and all the students in Miss Maxwell’s classroom are choosing their special projects. Classroom pets Fergus and Zeke want to participate, too! Zeke appoints himself president of their cage. But the power goes a bit to his head, and his “leading” and “supervising” leave Fergus to do all the work.

Will these two mice be able to agree on what makes a good president—and a good friend—in time to turn in their project with the rest of the class? Humorously illustrated and sprinkled with presidential trivia, this fifth title in the delightful series is a winning candidate.

Fergus and Zeke for President offers an engaging storyline with comedic and relatable elements, particularly in Zeke's self-centred behaviour. The use of historical and presidential facts enriches the narrative, while Fergus's newfound assertiveness is highlighted as a thematic focal point. The book's blend of silliness and idealism results in a well-rounded, wholesome story that's enjoyable for young readers.
