Book description
Was the White House always white?
Did someone actually burn down the White House?
is it true that a person went skinny-dipping in a White House fountain?
More than 200 years old, the White House is no ordinary house. The site of many significant moments in American history, this is certainly a home of great importance. Get an insider's tour of the president's mansion, with the fun facts, stories, and photos available in White House Q&A
Children's Literature
The cover, with its insets and "headlines," tells us that this book is packed with information about all aspects of the White House, including "Historical questions! Presidential answers!" "Home Sweet White House!" "Meet a Historian." It even promises "Web Links Take You Inside the Smithsonian!" The sharp, clear photographs are accompanied by illustrations and insets of information and special interest items. The table of contents lists the questions that are covered in this book, from "What is the White House?," "How has the White House changed?" and "Who takes care of the White House?" to "Where does the first family live?," "How do first families relax?," and "Are pets allowed in the White House?" Factoids, details and tidbits appear as insets which are incorporated into the text without distracting from the body of information being presented in each section. During John Adams' term, only six of the thirty-six rooms were finished and the East Room was used to hang laundry. (How times change! It is currently one of the most highly-decorated rooms.) Covering everything from how the food is prepared to how a turkey is "spared" every Thanksgiving, this title is very inclusive in its coverage of White House topics. The scope is broad and appealing as we see the youngsters living in the White House in their daily life and even get a peek into their private quarters. The "What happens when you write to the White House?" page includes the address so that "when you write to the White House, your letter becomes part of history!" Backmatter includes a glossary, a lost of websites and books, "Meet the Curator," and an index. This would definitely be a first choice for any library building itsnon-fiction collection, as it is a perfect fit for students doing research on the White House.
