About this listen

There's something special about living in the White House. You get to have your own room in a spectacular mansion with tall white columns, and a wide green lawn. You'll have plenty of friends, like Blue Bear, a six-foot tall marshmellow-loving companion, and the Bat Family, five extraordinary creatures whose ancestors hung from the masts of the Mayflower itself! You'll have special adventures, too. Such as teaching a computer not to be afraid of people...finding your way home in the snow...and taking the train to New York to rescue Grandpa Bat from the mysterious floors of the Vampire State Building, the scariest building you've ever seen.There's something special about living in the White House, especially when your father is the President of the United States—and your best friends are bats! In this beautifully illustrated book, the author tells a fantastic tale of four seasons in a White House populated by the First Family of American bats, a giant Blue Bear, an intellectual anteater and a charming young bird. Mr. Preiss is best known as one of the most important figures in the renaissance of illustrated fiction in America.

Mr. Smith, who resides in the Dallas area with his wife Angela and their three children, is best known for his enchanted illustrations for Phantasmagoria, an internationally acclaimed publication which he both wrote and illustrated.
