A White House dog teaches lawmakers how to be better humans in this hilarious picture book told in presidential memos!

Good dog Chester Barkingham moves into his forever home—the White House!—when he’s adopted by the president’s daughter. The president sends memos to let everybody know about Chester joining the staff and, soon enough, the trouble he gets into.

The president has other things to worry about, though. Congress can’t seem to get along, and bills are getting stalled as both sides argue and debate. Chester knows just what to do about the deadlock…if anybody would listen to him. When Chester starts sending memos of his own, Capitol Hill turns upside down—which may be just what everybody needs.

Illustrated by Eva Byrne.
