A Little Golden Book biography that honors the life of Jimmy Carter—the 39th president of the United States, whose kindness and dedication to helping others left an enduring legacy. This beautifully illustrated book will be enjoyed by readers of all ages.
Jimmy Carter rose from humble beginnings as a peanut farmer to become a champion for peace, human rights, and democracy. After leaving the White House, the Nobel Peace Prize recipient continued to help others by building houses with Habitat for Humanity and working to protect the environment well into his nineties. He passed away at the age of 100—the only ex-president to live that long.
