Do you know everything there is to know about the Presidents of the United States? OH NO YOU DON'T!

The people who have served as President of the United States of America are some of the most famous people on the planet. But how much do we really know about the presidents?

We all know that...
  • President Abraham Lincoln freed enslaved people by signing the Emancipation Proclamation,
  • Thomas Jefferson introduced ice cream to the US,
  • Andrew Johnson was impeached by the House of Representatives and kicked out of office,
  • AND that Theodore Roosevelt had teddy bears named after him because he once refused to shoot an injured bear...

Do we...? Because... OH NO THEY DIDN'T!

These commonly held misconceptions about our Presidents are everywhere, but none of them are true! In Oh No They Didn't: Presidents, commonly held misconceptions about the Presidents, Vice-Presidents, First Ladies, and presidential pets are all dispelled.
