Zoom in on American Symbols

Many children may know the Pledge of Allegiance, or recognize the song sung at the beginning of sports games, but few understand the traditions that spurred these great American symbols. From the history of the Liberty Bell and the Statue of Liberty to how the bald eagle became the national bird, each book uses strong text-photo correlation to help young readers better understand the history, traditions, and figures behind each American symbol. Fun facts help students learn more about each symbol and will inspire a lifelong sense of patriotism.
