Stars & Stripes: The Story of the American Flag
By Sarah L.  Thomson
Illustrator Bob Dacey
Publisher Harper Collins

This picture book history of the American Flag shows why Americans continue to be inspired by the flag and why all across American they choose to fly it from their homes and businesses or on their cars and trucks. With two to ten sentences per page, this is not an information heavy book about the flag, but it is a visual declaration of patriotism. Read this book to your children before the next time they watch a parade. They too will experience the thrill of placing their hands over their hearts as the flag goes by at the beginning of the parade.
