Perfect for fans of I Am George Washington and So You Want to Be President?President Truman famously said, \"If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog.\" And a dog is what many presidents got. From James Garfield to Calvin Coolidge to Richard Nixon, presidents often found a friend in Fido (in fact, Abe Lincoln's pup was actually named Fido). Others preferred cats, horses, small critters, or even big, ferocious animals like bears and alligators. With a catchy refrain (\"If you want a friend in Washington . . . , \"), this is a funny, educational book about the animals that have passed through the White House. Whether it's favorite dogs like Barbara Bush's Millie or the Obamas' Bo; Abraham Lincoln's cat, Dixie; Calvin Coolidge's hippo, Billy; or Andrew Jackson's foul-mouthed parrot, Poll, Erin McGill brings to life a menagerie of presidential pets in this entertaining, whimsical, and carefully researched picture book that's perfect for animal lovers and history buffs alike.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51929621791008,"sku":"NEW0593122690","price":19.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/if-you-want-a-friend-in-washington-wacky-wild-wonderful-presidential-pets-0593122690","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
