An Almost True Tail of Our Founding Feathers: The Declaration of Independence (Almost True Tails) - Softcover

Thomas Jefferson kept a mockingbird on his shoulder. Could it be that the tiny bird helped craft the document that began America? Benjamin Franklin had pet squirrels. Was one of them in on the plot? What about Martha Washington's parrot, Polly, and George Washington's hunting hounds, Tipsy and Tipler? Did the pets of the founding fathers of our country help write the Declaration of Independence? Even the famous war horse, Nelson, joins in this imagined scheme to help establish a brand new country.
