Description

Meet the Scottish terrier who won the hearts of a U.S. president and the American people.In 1940, Fala came to live with President Franklin D. Roosevelt in the White House. The little dog played in the grass outside the Oval Office, attended important meetings with the president’s advisors, and even dines with the president. But as America was drawn into the conflict of a world war, life at the White House changed. Fala accompanied the president across the country and around the world, waiting with him for the return of American servicemen and an end to a terrible war.Author Elizabeth Van Steenwyk offers young readers a glimpse into American history and the life of a U.S. president through the story of a loyal dog. Michael G. Montgomery’s full-color illustrations capture the indomitable spirit of Fala and the nation and president who loved him.

The illustrations in the story are delightful. They are focused on the dog’s point of view. This would be a clever way to introduce more about the history of America at a level that would be appropriate for young children. In a school, it would be a good choice for celebrating Presidents’ Day! Young students would have fun learning about history from a pet’s point of view.
