My Great Grandchildren want to see where President Obama and his family live. Does anyone know

a good easy to use site? One of them has a Obama doll and she cannot be separated from it. Her dad was teasing her the other day and she was ready to take him on to get her doll back. She asks questions abut the family all the time and she is only 5 years old.

But doverpublications.com has thousands of paper doll books and coloring books--among them, the Obamas and one I just saw today about the White House. My granddaughter is from Ethiopia and she is thrilled that the First Daughters have hair like hers.

In addition to paper dolls, coloring books, and stickers, they also have books, many of them treasures like "Twelve Years a Slave." I hope Dover is feeling some of the Hollywood love (i.e., $$$$$) from the movie.
