Reach for this book when your child starts questioning their place in the world or feels the weight of high expectations from family and school. It is an ideal pick for a kid who feels like they live under a microscope, or for a history buff who prefers the human side of the past over dry dates and battles. This engaging nonfiction work explores the unique, often hidden lives of presidential children throughout American history, from the high-stakes 1700s to the modern era. Through photos and anecdotes, the book balances the incredible perks of White House life, like having a personal movie theater, with the universal struggles of siblings, chores, and missing a busy parent. It helps children realize that even the most famous figures in history were once just kids trying to find fun and privacy. It is a wonderful tool for opening conversations about family dynamics, the cost of fame, and how we all adapt to new, sometimes overwhelming environments.
