Of Thee I Sing: A Letter to my Daughters

In this tender, beautiful letter to his daughters, President Barack Obama has written a moving tribute to thirteen groundbreaking Americans and the ideals that have shaped our nation. From the artistry of Georgia O'Keeffe, to the courage of Jackie Robinson, to the patriotism of George Washington, President Obama sees the traits of these heroes within his own children, and within all of America's children.

Among those featured in Obama's letter are Billie Holiday, Maya Lin, Helen Keller, Jane Addams, Georgia O'Keefe and other trailblazers. This beautiful book about the potential within each of us to pursue our dreams and forge our own paths is a treasure to cherish with your family forever.

Description

"Long's superb technical gifts and gentle sense of humor shine in the pictures. Posed nobly and, usually, hard at work in full-page scenes, each man or woman also appears as a willowy but recognizable child on the facing and following pages, joining a growing crowd of young observers gazing across the center stitching and exchanging symbolic tools of their various trades. Their ranks swelled with more children, these younger versions turn to face viewers on the penultimate spread, followed by a closing painting of the author walking with his daughters and a page of reasonably accurate historical notes." — John Peters, School Library Journal
