To think about…What Does It Mean to Be American? by DiOrio and Yoran

This book for younger children (Pre-K through grade 3 or so) looks to the values that ideally Americans share.  With its appealing, multi-cultural illustrations and simple text, this book talks about what Americans aspire to be in terms of character and ways of behaving.  It is a story that encourages children to think about what is important and the ways in which this includes valuing both oneself and others.  A nice addition for school libraries.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher.  The views are my own.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
