Flag Day - June 14
Pam Ryan tells about her book The Flag We Love
"The Flag We Love is a picture book on the American flag. It is written in simple poetry with a short facts section on each page. Beginning with the stars and stripes, it depicts the emotions and symbolism associated with the flag. The research was intense but interesting. I have fascinating research slides including every flag planting on the moon. I enjoy showing this book and the slides to teachers and children."

happy flag day to you too, Pam :) I see "Make Way for Ducklings" down there- one of my all time favorites! Since I was a young girl, I've gone to visit the sculpture in Boston Commons!
