內容簡介
Kids will be kids—even when they live in the White House! From Tad Lincoln (secretly called a “tyrant” ) to the Roosevelt gang (who kept a pet badger, a rat, dogs, snakes, horses, parrots, and a one-legged chicken!) to the Kennedys (who used the oval office as a playground) to Chelsea Clinton (who transformed herself from an awkward teen into an accomplished scholar), the children featured in First Kids shared a unique experience and role in American history.

精彩書評
"Davis can certainly get children excited about living in the White House by telling them about the movie theater and swimming pool, how they would get to meet sports and movie stars, and travel by limousine and private jet. He then proceeds to tell about life in the White House for the children of seven U.S. presidents. Readers will learn about Tad and Willie Lincoln and how they set up a lemonade stand and charged visitors who came to the White House; Jesse Grant and his secret clubhouse; Theodore Roosevelt's children's pets; John and Cal Coolidge and the first White House Christmas tree; Caroline and John Kennedy's visits to their father's office for bedtime stories; Lynda and Luci Johnson's teen years; and the negative comments from the press about Chelsea Clinton. The deaths of Willie Lincoln and Cal Coolidge are mentioned. Part of the "Step into Reading" series (Step 4), this book will acquaint beginning readers with some interesting tidbits of American history. "

多讀書,可以讓你全身都有禮節。俗話說:“第一印象最重要。”從你留給彆人的第一印象中,就可以讓彆人看齣你是什麼樣的人。所以多讀書可以讓人感覺你知書答禮,頗有風度。
