Genuine letters sent from the kids of the early 1960s to JFK show you the dreams, obsessions, and general attitude of America's children. New York Times best-selling book creator worked with the White House mail department to find letters that were delightful, intriguing, and representative of the thousands of letters that would stream in each week. The book is augmented by dozens of delightful illustrations by Louis Darling, better know for this work on Beverly Cleary's Beezus & Ramona books. Out of print for half a century, this book is now back in this paperback edition!
