Franklin Delano Roosevelt grew up with private tutors, trips to Europe, and great wealth. But his life changed suddenly when he came down with polio. With determination and courage to overcome this obstacle, he decided to run for President. That decision helped change the course of America—both at home and overseas.

TIME For Kids� Biographies help make a connection between the lives of past heroes and the events of today. Franklin Roosevelt set up important programs that are still in place. And through his leadership, he helped establish the United States as a world power.
