George shares the backroom facts, the spit-fire comments, and the comical anecdotes that have been part and parcel of America's White House. But why not? Presidents have come in just about every variety. When George Bush grew up, he became President. As a boy, George Bush had to eat broccoli. "The President doesn't have to eat yucky vegetables. "The President never has to take out the garbage. "Another good thing about being President is that the President has a swimming pool, bowling alley, and movie theater. One of the good things is that the President lives in a big white house called the White House. "There are good things about being President and there are bad things about being President. ![]() ![]() George and David Small, winner of the 2001 Caldecott Medal for illustration.
