Customer Reviews

Two Paws Up!

Love this book! It is fun, witty and totally charming. What a clever way to give a personal, inside look at the White House during the George H.W. Bush presidency. I chuckle every time I think of Millie referring to President Bush as "the Prez," her ins and outs in the Oval Room, Millie's commentary on Barbara at the puppies' first shots, and the photos of Millie with dignitaries and celebrities. Marvelous that proceeds have been donated to children's literacy programs. Well done, Millie!

how can you not like it?

I ran across this book that I had bought a few years ago and once again was fully entertained by it. We have a Springer Spaniel also, so that made it even more enjoyable. The pictures are fantastic! The story was adorable and gave us a look at how hard life in the White House is for a well loved pet. :) Give it a look, I think you will enjoy.

Great Book

This is a great book featuring the late Millie Bush.Former President George Bush Sr.'s Springer SpanielIt shows Millie with various politicians and famous people.

Honest and Courageous Dog

I'm Millie's son, Ranger. I think that "Millie's Book" is truthful, and beautifully written. My mother had incredible courage to write this book and I'm very proud of her.

A Charming Book

I received "Millie's Book" as a gift several years ago. Although I may be a bit partial having shared my life with Springer Spaniels for nearly 20 years, I found the book very enjoyable. Aside from Millie and her pups being adorable, the photos are wonderful, and it gives an inside look into the White House. I was also under the impression "Millie's Book" was more of a children's book, but it has interest for all ages. I would definately recommend "Millie's Book", especially for lovers of spaniel dogs!
