The Great White House Breakout
A hilarious adventure starring the First Kid. Sam’s mom is president. That means he gets to play in the Oval Office (which is pretty cool), but it also means his busy mom has him under constant Secret Service surveillance (which sounds cool, but isn’t). So Sam and his best friends, Warren the cat and Leonard the ex-NASA lab rat, hatch a daring plan: They’ll bust out of the White House and take a grand tour of their historic hometown. The tour is a blast, until Sam begins to miss his home and family . . . and a kite-flying fiasco lands the trio on the Washington Monument (literally). An effective rescue mission would mean calling in several prominent troops—so it’s a good thing the president’s been paying attention all along! Perfect for election season, White House is sure to keep readers entertained long after the polls have closed.

I snagged this from the library to entertain my husband, never dreaming it would be our 2-year-old daughter's favorite selection that week. The drawings are very funny, and it runs you through a cute tour of D.C.

This book is laugh out loud funny for children and adults. Collaborators Thomas and Bok make a great pair. The story is entertaining, and the drawings are vibrant, with unbelievable details (you have to look through the book several times to absorb all the nuances). Children and adults will fall in love with THE GREAT WHITE HOUSE BREAKOUT -- while taking a romp through the sites of Washington, DC!
