When Alice Roosevelt's father became President of the United States, her family became the center of attention for the whole country (and the world) - and that was just the way Alice liked it. Whether smoking on the White House roof or wearing her pet snake Emily Spinach as a necklace to Congressional Balls, Alice scandalized her parents and delighted the nation - but that was just the beginning.
