96 pp. | Charlesbridge/Imagine | July, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-1-936140-80-0 $14.95
(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Jay Shin. Primary sources and anecdotal sidebars combine with an engaging text to present a thorough discussion of what it's like to be a child or teenager living in the White House. The awkward pastel illustrations detract from the presentation, but plentiful photographs augment the scrapbooklike design. This is an inviting, fact-filled look at the pros and cons of being a member of the First Family. Bib., ind.
