NEW! Farm Animals of Presidents

G. Hansen

This book has it all: Bright and colorful images, historical photographs, and lots of sweet information about presidents and their pet farm animals. Readers will love seeing every pet owner, from Lincoln to the Harrisons. Benjamin Harrison had a Billy goat and a Durham cow at the White House during his term from 1889-1893. The goat, known as “Old Whiskers” used to be harnessed so it could haul Harrison’s grandchildren around the White House grounds. According to a 1903 story published in the Washington Evening Star, Old Whiskers took off with Harrison’s grandson, Benjamin. The goat and grandson headed toward an excavation site with the president, who was in his late 50s, chasing after them. Eventually Harrison caught up to the racing goat and grabbed the bridle to prevent any disaster. A good Read! Gr. K-3
