Another book about a cat

Willow the White House Cat ~ by Dr Jill Biden, illustrated by Kate Berube, 2024, children's picture book, 48 pages, 10/10

Willow, a farm cat from Pennsylvania, adjusts to her new home, the White House, where she finds new places to play and friendly staff members who, regardless of their busy schedules, warmly embrace her presence.

The story of how a cat named Willow made her way from a farm in Pennsylvania to her new home, the White House, and made new friends along the way.  When Willow leaves her cozy barn for Washington, DC, and the big white house where she will now live, Willow discovers new rooms to explore and is welcomed by the nice lady she met at Farmer Rick’s farm.

Willow meets so many new people — one who arranges the flow­ers, another who makes sweet things to eat, and the man with a nice smile who seems to be able to do everything at once.  Even though they are much bigger and busier than she is, each of them always seems to have time to say hello and make her feel at home in the big white house.  Willow enjoys discovering the White House and all the special people who make this house a home.
