I Live Real Close to Where You Used to Live is a collection of letters written by kids across America to Michelle Obama and her daughters Malia and Sasha (plus a few to their dog Bo). Each missive differs wildly in subjectfrom Easy Bake ovens and Pokmon, to immigration, school funding, foreclosures, and war. You'll find no shortage of advice, observations, requests, and questions ("Wouldn't it be awesome if pickles grew on trees") from these young writers. Their letters to the first lady and her family are both poignant and hilarious.
