#738. Dear Mrs. O...

There is a new book out called I Live Real Close to Where You Used to Live: Kids' Letters to Michelle Obama (and to Sasha, Malia, & Bo). The book is a collection of letters written by children across the United States to Mrs. O and her kids. The letters contain advice, observations, and questions for the First Lady. Here are two of my favorite comments:

"You're a better dancer than your husband."

"Try to keep drugs off the streets. Robots may be able to help you."

Proceeds benefit 826 National, a network of nine nonprofit organizations that help children with expository and creative writing. Buy the book here!

The book is a follow up to Thanks and Have Fun Running the Country: Kids' Letters to President Obama.
