About this listen

Learn about the White House, how it came to be, the changes it has experienced since its initial design, and more in this detailed history for young readers, part of the beloved Where Is? series. The perfect way to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary!

The history of the White House, first completed in 1799, reflects the history of America itself. It was the dream of George Washington to have an elegant "presidential mansion" in the capital city that was named after him. Yet he is the only US president who never got to live there! All the others have made their mark on the house at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. In this detailed account of the nation’s most well-known residence, young historians will get an intriguing glimpse into the White House’s initial construction, the renovations it has undergone, the capital city of Washington, D.C., and the lives of the First Families who have called this landmark building “home.”.
