From the publisher

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.
