dianerchen said: First Dog Fala is a delightful quick read about FDR's best friend in the White House. Michael G. Montgomery's pictures are a treasure. They convey the exuberance and joy of a Scottish terrier who became the president's greatest companion. Perhaps what I like best is how this title has inspired students to research for my information on Fala. While this title is perfect for elementary students, my middle schoolers discussed this in-depth for over 45 minutes. Good picture books inspire you and First Dog Fala is on our pick list.
