你知道约翰·亚当斯不得不哄骗托马斯·杰斐逊写独立宣言吗?这是真的。这位腼腆的弗吉尼亚州政治家一开始拒绝了，但随后他撰写了美国重要且鼓舞人心的文件之一。作为第三任美国总统，杰斐逊同时也是一名建筑师、发明家、音乐家、农民，以及他生活中最令人不安的方面——奴隶主。最后，这是一本儿童传记，揭示了这位国父非凡而复杂的生活的许多方面。

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.
