Blue Sky, White Stars

An inspiring and patriotic tribute to the beauty of the American flag, a symbol of America’s history, landscape, and people

Wonderfully spare, deceptively simple verses celebrate the iconic imagery of our nation, beginning with the American flag. The story depicts a stirring tableau, from the view of the Statue of Library at Ellis Island to civil rights marchers shoulder to shoulder, to a spacecraft at Cape Canaveral blasting off. This book is an ode to America then and now, from sea to shining sea.

“Many readers will feel that this book looks like the America they know.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review
