The First Pup: The Real Story of How Bo Got to the White House
Product ID: 11073505
Once upon a time, a man named Barack Obama ran for president of the United States and he won! On the night of his victory, he made a very important announcement: When he and his family were settled in their new home in Washington, D.C., his daughters would get . . . A PUPPY! On a farm in Texas, a puppy had been born. One of ten brothers and sisters, this puppy was lively and smart, but he needed a new home. From a Texas farm to the White House, this is the real story of Bo―the First Pup! The First Pup is a 2011 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year. Review: Great Book! - LOVE this book. Great way to introduce the concept of the Presidency and First Lady/Family to young children. My Grandchildren, ages 5 and 7 enjoyed this and went to school and told their teachers about it. I would definitely recommend. Review: A Delightful Tale. ;) - This is an extremely well told story of how the first family ended up with a first pup. The text is perfect, but the illustrations are phenomenal. Bo is so adorably drawn, I actually thought about getting another dog for a second.

I gave this book along with a Ty Babies Bo ...
I gave this book along with a Ty Babies Bo to my friend's 4-year old son. The story reaches children and the illustrations are very colorful.

another great one
I do therapy dog work (with my Portuguese Water Dogs), and the kids love it when I bring books "starring" my own breed for their reading work.
