Willow: The White House Cat by Jill Biden (B2002): The story of how Willow the White House Cat made her way from a farm in Pennsylvania to her new home, the White House, and made new friends along the way, written by First Lady, Dr. Jill Biden. When Willow leaves her cozy barn for Washington, DC, and the big white house where she will now live, Willow discovers new rooms to explore and is welcomed by the nice lady she met at Farmer Rick’s farm. Soon, Willow meets so many new people—one who arranges the flow­ers, another who makes sweet things to eat, and the man with a nice smile who seems to be able to do everything at once. Even though they are much bigger and busier than she is, each of them always seems to have time to say hello and make her feel at home in the big white house. Willow enjoys discovering the White House and all the special people who make this house a home.

The Overlooked Marian Apparitions at Zeitoun, Egypt (B2005): Zeitoun is one of the locations where the Holy Family supposedly stopped on their flight to Egypt, fleeing King Herod’s murder of the innocents some nineteen centuries earlier. The Virgin Mary appeared weekly on average, especially around feast days, on top of St. Mary’s Coptic Church in Zeitoun for all to see. It was a supernatural experience perceived by massive crowds for years. It occurred in a predominantly Muslim country and at a Coptic Church, which might be why Catholics are less familiar with it. This title provides more information on this little known apparition.
