"Eleanor Roosevelt was known for lots of things, but her love of hot dogs probably isn't one of them. This book remedies that by taking a little-known incident from history and turning it into a delightful picture book....Kimmelman does a pithy job of presenting both this amusing incident and also what was happening in both the country and a world on the brink of war." --Booklist

"Caricature drawings capture the essence of the personalities and behaviors of the four main participants, Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt and King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, while adding a sense of reality and amusement to the historically little-known episode. Kimmelman's straightforward storytelling...deftly brings this bit of Americana to life....A captivating introductory piece for budding history buffs." --Kirkus Reviews
