I really like the book "Mind Your Manners, Alice Roosevelt!". I especially enjoyed the illustrations. They added humor to the book and helped the reader to understand all of the silly things Alice would do in the white house. For example, there is an illustration of people reacting to her snake, Emily Spinach, popping up in the middle of the State Dinning Room. I also liked the language used in the book. At some points in the book the author uses words that are typical of conversation from that time period. For example, when all of the Roosevelts' were playing together they are shouting things like: "Utter rapture!", "Bully fun!" and "Slick!". These are phrases not typical in modern day vocabulary, but common to the time period of the book and Alice's life. The big idea of this book is about Alice Roosevelt and her life and the mischief she caused in the White House.

Mind your manners, Alice Roosevelt
This book is about Teddy Roosevelt’s daughter Alice Roosevelt. It tells the story of how crazy and foolish she was growing up. She loved to cause trouble and loved to have fun more than anything. It tells of her exploits in the white house and her getting married. But in the end it says she never minded her manners and had fun. I liked this book for three main reasons. On reason is the book was funny. Some of the things she did in the white house as a joke was really funny. It also shows the president as being powerless to control her which was funny to see. Another reason that I liked the book was the pictures were very well drawn and familiar. All the pictures are very recognizable like Teddy Roosevelt and certain things in the Whitehouse. This makes the story seem more lifelike and make me more interested in it. The third and final reason that I liked this book is that it had a good message. Its message was to have fun with your life and no matter what not let people control you. Do what you have fun doing despite what other people say. I thought this was an important message and it resonated with me because I love to have fun and live my life to do that. In conclusion I liked this book because It was funny, recognizable pictures, and good message. ( )

I mainly enjoyed reading this book because of the consistent humorous undertone of the story and Alice’s actions. For example, when his sons reflected sunlight through the windows of government offices, President Roosevelt used flags to signal back the message, “A. T. T. A. C. K. on this building must immediately cease.” Also, even in her later years, Alice enjoyed making mischief by purposefully seating people who didn’t like each other side by side, right next to her pillow that had “If you can’t say something good about someone sit right here by me” written across it. My favorite quote from the book arises when a friend of President Roosevelt’s asks him why he doesn’t do something about Alice. Teddy Roosevelt replies with, “I can do one of two things. I can be president of the United States or I can control Alice. I cannot possibly do both.” In addition to the humorous stories, the illustrations were hilarious, especially on the page where President Roosevelt yells, “ALICE!” as she jumps into a collection of water in her full and very lady like attire.

Who knew that the U.S. former president, Teddi Roosevelt, had such a daughter with such a funky personality. Alice Roosevelt was considered a a wild young lady for her time. When other ladies minding their manners, Alice was mischievous. The White House was her playground. She even had a snake as a pet! Even her own father, the president of the United States was having a hard time handling her. You can't help but love her free spirited personality. ( )
