This non-fiction book has a little bit of everything in it–although the title leads one to believe that it is mainly about pets and animals owned by the presidents of the United States, it is actually much more than that.  Each two-page spread has information on a president, in chronological order, which includes a poem about the president and his pet(s), or not.  His accomplishments during his term(s)  are listed as well as info on his family.  The accompanying illustration is more of a caricature or political cartoon of the president, rather than a portrait, showing something rather funny well known about the president.  A great book for browsing and animal lovers.
