Description

PRESIDENTS are made of BIG EATERS...and so much more!

You get a portrait of former U. S. president Jimmy Carter, who builds houses for the homeless.

See the presidents as never before -- made out of objects! Using everything from blue jeans to boxing gloves, Hanoch Piven "builds" the characters of our leaders. And with revealing anecdotes to go along with Piven's creations, you'll never forget what makes up George (Washington), George (Bush), or anyone else in between.
