Millie also takes readers through a typically busy day with the President that begins at 6:00 A.M. and includes morning briefings, deliberations in the Oval Office, with occasional short breaks for squirrel hunting. Shunning hounding media attentionshe's a spaniel -Millie also accompanies the First Lady on a tour of the White House from the Rose Garden to the Lincoln Bed room; from the East Room-to the Blue Room.
