After he became president, Roosevelt kept his body strong. He even boxed in the White House. One day, another boxer hit him in the eye. After that accident, Roosevelt became blind in one eye.

Theodore Roosevelt’s nickname was “Teddy”. Everybody called him so. When he was president, he often went hunting. One day he went hunting with some friends and saw a small bear.
