Not a new book, hubby borrowed it from our DIL‘s collection for a vacation read. He loved it and recommended it, so how could I resist? Yet another WWII novel, a mystery that kept twisting and turning until the end. The first of a series (DIL has the next book, too) that I‘m looking forward to continuing.

I thought I still had a photo from inside Churchill‘s War Rooms in London, but this is the best I could do.

Definitely the conclusive work on Winston Churchill. Obviously Roberts has out done himself in terms of investigation and research. The book is extremely detailed (many times to a tedious and excessive degree) but a fun read nonetheless. At 982 pages, it's definitely not a short or quick read but I enjoyed it all the same.

#12BooksOf2024 #ChurchillInTheWhiteHouse #RobertSchmuhl #December2024

Winston Churchill visited the White House many times during his two terms as prime minister. He met with FDR and Dwight D. Eisenhower and shaped American foreign policy during the Second World War. He arrived after the attack on Pearl Harbor. He had a great relationship with FDR but not so much with Eisenhower.

EadieB I really did enjoy this book and reading about Churchill. Never knew that he came about fifteen times and stayed in the Rose Room at the White House. He also went a couple of times to Canada and met with the prime minister there. If you like history books then you will love this book. Highly recommended! 9mo

In my classroom, this book can help students understand emotional growth, encourage discussions about coping mechanisms, and emphasize the importance of friendship and creativity in personal development.

This book was published in 2020 and is a graphic novel that blends contemporary fiction with elements of mental health and healing. It follows Manuel, a middle schooler recovering from a traumatic experience, as he navigates his anxiety through photography and forms new friendships with classmates. The book explores themes of resilience, self-expression, and the power of art in overcoming fear.
