America by Lynne Cheney
America: A Patriotic Primer is a succinct history of the United States, an ABC of the principles on which this country was founded, and a book for children and families to pore over, discuss, and cherish.A is for America,
the land that we love.
B is for the Birthday
of this country of ours....
To choose the twenty-six people and ideas that comprise the book, Lynne Cheney has drawn on a lifetime of learning about the American past, and on the inspiration that comes from witnessing recent history firsthand. Illustrator Robin Preiss Glasser imbues Mrs. Cheney's words with childlike joy through her exuberant drawings. Together they have created a patriotic primer, a book that teaches history by celebrating the diversity, tenacity, and faith of the American people.
This A to Z of America frames the story--and the miracle--of our country.
We the People: The Story of Our Constitution, illustrated by Greg Harlin, is Lynne Cheney's most recent book, which was a New York Times bestseller. She's also the author of the New York Times bestsellers America: A Patriotic Primer, A Is for Abigail: An Almanac of Remarkable American Women, When Washington Crossed the Delaware: A Wintertime Tale for Young Patriots, A Time for Freedom: What Happened When in America, and Our 50 States: A Family Journey Across America, as well as a memoir called Blue Skies, No Fences. Mrs. Cheney is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and was previously the chair of the National Endowment for the Humanities. She and her husband, Vice President Richard B.
