Oh Say Can You See

Readers can explore American history and traditions in O, Say Can You See? America's Symbols, Landmarks, and Inspiring Words by Sheila Keenan, illus. by Ann Boyajian. With one to two spreads for each monument or symbol, the volume covers such historical cornerstones as the White House, Uncle Sam, the Great Seal and the National Anthem. Boyajian's brightly smudged pastel and pencil renderings complement Keenan's accessible text: ""The Liberty Bell kept tolling. Finally, it cracked. No one is sure exactly when."" .
