Sinopsis
A mysterious bird poops on the president's head during the State of the Union address.
★ A lively, diverse mystery with enjoyable, informative plotting and a relatable young female protagonist. - Kirkus Reviews
Fina Mendoza, the 10-year-old daughter of a congressman, is sitting in the House gallery of the U.S. Capitol when a mysterious bird poops on the head of the president during the State of the Union address. Can Fina outsmart the Capitol police and the Secret Service to find that bird and uncover its secret message?
The bird could be a Chickcharney, the legendary bird from the Caribbean, which may have come to Washington to deliver a secret message. Is it for the president? Or Congress? Or for Fina’s friend, a cashier at the Capitol snack bar? Or maybe it's a message for Fina from her mom who passed away not so many months ago.
Fina gets detecting help from a pair of congressional dogs as she searches for clues.
The story mixes the mystery with a peek behind the scenes at the U.S. Capitol, including a congressional battle over immigration reform and a family battle when Fina’s grandmother is nearly arrested at an immigration protest.
It’s The West Wing meets Nancy Drew.
State of the Union has received bipartisan praise:
- Kitty Felde is teaching our children all about Capitol Hill in a way that grabs and keeps their interest. Personally, I can say she knows every nook and cranny of the place because she interviewed me in almost all of them. Former U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer (D)
- “State of the Union” is a civics lesson disguised as a mystery for kids, a family story where Papa just happens to serve in the U.S. Congress. In an era of bitter partisan politics, it’s a sneaky way to excite the next generation about government and the possibility of public service. Former Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, Congressman Buck McKeon (R)
BUY NOW! Introduce your kids to the adventures of Fina…and sneak in some basic civics education.
