First Lady Jill Biden is diving into the children’s book scene again, but this time, she’s not just writing about her husband, Joe Biden. No, no. She’s taking a different route entirely and focusing on their pet cat, Willow. Can you believe it? A whole book about a cat. The book, co-authored by Alyssa Satin Capucilli and illustrated by Kate Berube, is set to be published by Simon & Schuster’s children’s publishing branch in June. Get ready, kids – Willow, The White House Cat is on its way to a bookshelf near you!
In this newest addition to the Biden literary collection, the first lady tells the tale of how Willow, the short-haired tabby, found herself meandering through the halls of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. As if that’s something anyone cares about! Apparently, the book follows Willow as she explores the White House, making friends and learning about all the “incredible people” who keep the place running. Oh, and did you know that the cat got her name from Jill Biden’s hometown of Willow Grove, Pennsylvania? Riveting stuff, folks. Riveting.
This isn’t Biden’s first rodeo in the children’s book department, either. She’s already got two under her belt, one about their dog, and the other about her husband. What’s next, a literary saga about the White House groundskeeper’s goldfish? Anyway, the point is, this isn’t uncharted territory for the first lady. She’s got a whole arsenal of animal-themed books just waiting to fill up those bookshelves.
Now, onto the real shocker – this announcement comes after the Bidens had to relocate their German shepherd, Commander, due to a string of not-so-friendly encounters. Talk about a scandal! But don’t worry, Commander is currently chilling at an undisclosed location with some family members. Maybe he’s working on his own tell-all book about the secrets of the White House grounds. One can only imagine the escapades that big pup has gotten into.
So, there you have it, folks. The first lady’s latest foray into the world of children’s literature, featuring Willow the cat and a whole lot of White House charm. Get ready to add this one to your collection, right next to Marlon Bundo’s Day in the Life of the Vice President. Who knew the political pet book genre could be so riveting?
