Libby’s
learning about the Pledge of Alliance at school. It really comes to life for
her as she follows her great Aunt Lobo through the process of becoming an
American citizen. They practice together and both learn a lot.
This is a beautifully illustrated book! I love this illustrator! Absolutely charming! The story has a wonderful flow and the author really brings the pledge to life through storytelling. Why is it just optional? Not all schools participate in the Pledge, as the inclusion of God can be controversial.
