Charlotte, James, and baby John have promised to be on their very best behavior for when George Washington comes to have his portrait painted by their father, Gilbert Stuart. But, it seems like every time George Washington comes to visit, Charlotte has to write another apology letter, even when they try to follow George Washington's Rules of Good Behavior. If these whippersnappers want any dessert, they are going to have to learn some manners--and fast What results is a hilarious chain of events, a giant mess...and a painting that will be remembered for centuries to come. |
