Why read it?
1 author picked Just Being Jackie as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is the perfect companion book to my book When Jackie Saved Grand Central. Both books fill out the story of two important buildings that she restored - The White House and Grand Central Terminal. In this story, you learn more about Jackie as a child. And I’m IN LOVE with the illustrations! Denos captured Jackie’s beauty and strength in drawings that remind me of fashion sketches.
From Natasha's list on fabulous First Ladies.
