What to Do about Alice?: How Alice Roosevelt Broke the Rules, Charmed the World, and Drove Her Father Teddy Crazy Audiobook

" Charming. A great match of text + illustrations (I do enjoy this kitsch retro trend we're having in picture books right now, and think it's well suited to this particular book). "

" What child ever knew that one of the Presidents' kids was so rowdy and fun? Alice is delightful! This bookis a great way to introduce children to several elements of history. "

" This is a great book and a great subject. A great book for young girls to encourages independence, curiosity, humor, and adventure. "

" This book is an enjoyable informational book for kids. My second grade cousin came home with this book and asked me to read it to her. It's about Alice Roosevelt. The book does a good job of showing Alice as a young girl and then a woman who has an appreciation for life! I'd use this in a small group if I was introducing biographies. "

" A fun read about TR's oldest daughter. She refused to conform to late 19th/early 20th century norms concerning the deportment of young ladies. The pictures show her in constant motion, and getting up to all sorts of things, sliding down stairs on trays, bike riding, sneaking out at night. It's funny that there refrain of the book is that Teddy didn't know what to do about Alice, when from what I can tell, Alice behaved very much like her father. "

" Terrific picture book biography of Teddy Roosevelt's daughter, Alice, who wreaked havoc in the White House. "

" I love Alice! I love how strong she is. "

" This book is great historical fiction. I will use this book to teach perspective and point of view. Students can also learn about accepting themselves for who they really are. "

" It was a coincidence that I read this book and THE MERMAID QUEEN on the same day (same illustrator). Many connections can be made between these two strong ladies from our history. "

" Fun, NF biography with AMAZING illustrations and design. This is a gorgeous book to look at. The text was a bit over the heads of my seven-year-old audience- some extraneous explanation was needed and vocabulary defined throughout- but overall, a very engaging book. "

" Same illustrator as Mermaid Queen , which I also loved, and which was also a story about a woman who ignored the restrictions the world tried to place on her. "

" charming and amusing biography of Alice Roosevelt. There is a theory that Alice was an iconoclast because she thought her father didn't love her. Maybe, maybe not. Either way, this book gives an interesting look into an interesting young lady. "

" Perky story about President Theodore Roosevelt's daughter Alice who did not conform to society's (and her father's) idea of how a young woman should behave. "

" With children in the White House today, this fun book looks back at Alice Roosevelt and her life in the White House. "

" I remember hearing a little bit about Alice when studying Teddy Roosevelt, but I learned much more about her when reading this book. I love how it talks about Alice as a child and follows her through adulthood. It also found myself giggling quite a bit at Alice's antics as I read. "

" This is truly fantastic! The text flows, bounces, jumps, runs, creates havoc -- just like Alice -- and just like the illustration. Wow. Such fun reading and looking at it -- and learning about a pretty remarkable woman in history! My 4th grade students LOVE this book :) "

" Very cute book about Alice Roosevelt (daughter of Theodore) and how she was a bit of a wild girl. "

" Biography. "
