On this special day in American history, we pause to remember and give honor to the individuals and families whose hearts we love and whose courage was tested.

As we’re raising up the next generations of patriots, this precious book, WHAT IS AMERICA?, is a great resource to use to teach little ones about how amazing our nation truly is. With all its struggles, pains, and trials, America still is absolutely a land to love and pray for and hope for.

“What is America? I really want to know.

Is it just some place that we live? A place where tourists go?”

These opening lines to this endearing book spark an inspirational journey as young readers learn about the Fourth of July and fireworks, the flag and the pledge, the Statue of Liberty, and much much more.

They learn that America is more than just symbols and monuments. It’s a land of freedom and democracy. It’s a land where we can dream…reach for the stars…and experience our dreams coming true.

Today is a good day to pause and read engaging and inspirational books like this one with the littles in our lives. It’s a day to pray and ask God to intervene for our nation. It’s a day to remember our fallen heroes and honor those who have given the ultimate sacrifice so that we might continue to build a land of freedom and liberty for all.
