Description:

Meet the 21 prime ministers who have governed Canada since 1867. From Sir John A. Macdonald to Paul Martin, this book highlights the history of Canada with a focus on its government and the people who have led it.

Kids will learn about each prime minister, their background, their family and their career milestones. Quick facts, quotes and surprising trivia provide a comprehensive and interesting description of each prime minister's term in office and the mark they left on Canadian history.

Also includes:
  • An introduction to Canada's system of government and the responsibilities of the prime minister.
  • A time line showing when each PM was in office, as well as other important dates in Canada's history.
"This attractive and informative book fills a real need. Entries for each of the 20 PMs, which range from two to five pages depending on their length of time in office, provide a good balance of serious social studies and lighter human detail,… The book is skillfully designed to blend the formal with the casual, and to present solid information in an appealing, user-friendly format." – Quill and Quire, July 1998
