Summary

Did you know that John Adams had to coax Thomas Jefferson into writing the Declaration of Independence? It's true. The shy Virginia statesman refused at first, but then went on to author one of our nation's most important and inspiring documents. The third U.S. president, Jefferson was also an architect, inventor, musician, farmer, and-what is certainly the most troubling aspect of his life-a slave owner. Finally, here's a biography for kids that unveils the many facets of this founding father's remarkable and complicated life. Spanish Description: ¿Sabias que John Adams tuvo que convencer a Thomas Jefferson para que escribiera la Declaracion de Independencia de los Estados Unidos? ¡Es cierto! Jefferson, un hombre timido que trabajaba para el gobierno del estado de Virginia, se rehuso en un principio para despues convertirse en el autor de uno de los documentos mas importantes e inspiradores de la nacion. Ademas de ser el tercer presidente de los Estados Unidos, Jefferson fue tambien arquitecto, inventor, musico, padre de familia, agricultor y dueno de esclavos (algo que hoy en dia es considerado como uno de los aspectos mas inquietantes de su vida). Finalmente contamos con una biografia para ninos que revela las muchas facetas de la extraordinaria y complicada vida de este Padre de la Patria.
