Synopsis:

Meet the Pets: Presidential Animals from A to Z With pets back in the White House, this charming alphabet book introduces children to presidents and their pets and how they made news and still do today. The illustrations, organized alphabetically, feature 26 animals in and out of the White House, that made news headlines, often as much or more as the presidents themselves. From alligator to zebra, these critters captivated the press and the public. Playful poems accompany each animal, sharing a bit of their story in a whimsical way. With the poems are added informational bits on each page that expand the story for older readers, as well as extensive back matter on the locations pictured in the illustrations. Collaged elements within the artwork use historic documents, letters and newspaper stories. A new administration that brought pets back into the White House – and all the press coverage of the first shelter pet that followed -- inspired our salute to the dogs, cats and animals that reached across the political aisle. We the People love our pets and pets of presidents. This sweet picture book is sure to please young readers, animal lovers of all ages and history enthusiasts.
