After all, she''s old and wearing a hairnet. But the First Lady of the United States--some 80 years ago, that is-- isn''t a mystery for long when she starts spouting things like "You must do the things you think you cannot do." Fresh off a visit from Ben Franklin, Nolan and Olive know what they''re in for with this latest guest: an adventure.

Fun back matter expands the story and unpacks the amazing life of Eleanor Roosevelt.
