The following titles are featured in the bundle:
The Flag Keeper -
Elizabeth may be a little bear, but she treats the American flag with
big respect. After Dad leaves for a trip, Elizabeth pledges to raise the
flag all by herself and follow all of the flag etiquette rules that her
father has taught her. However, her dad never told her what to do if
the flag gets dirty or the police show up. Teaches children about U.S.
flag etiquette through a fiction story, flag facts, activity idea, and
discussion questions. For ages 4-9. This book is also available in paperback.
Victoria Rose and the Big Bad Noise -
Victoria loves her home and family, but boy does she hate the noises
that invade her daily life. Her imagination transforms the blender into a
growling bear, the vacuum cleaner into a lion and the lawnmower into a
spaceship filled with monsters. With the help of a CD player, she
decides that maybe a nasty noise like the blender is just music that
doesn't know how to sing. This sweet bedtime story can help young
children learn that household noises aren't so scary after all. For ages
3 and up.
Sticker Shoes - When Jenny gets a sticker stuck to her shoe, she has a
new invention - Sticker Shoes! She covers her sneakers with shiny
sparkling stickers and runs outside to try out her beautiful shoes.
Unfortunately, Sticker Shoes aren't meant for rough and tumble play in
the dirt and her invention doesn't last. Jenny makes her way through her
closet, trying on old boots, dress-up shoes and slippers in her hunt
for the perfect Sticker Shoe. Teaches young children about
problem-solving and taking the first early "steps" toward independence.
For ages 3 and up.
Praise and Reviews
The Flag Keeper:
I would encourage all true patriots with children to purchase a copy to start their "little patriots" off on the right foot.
-- Steve Van Buskirk, Director of Programs, VFW National Headquarters
A
wonderful story about Elizabeth, who through life's day-to-day
adventures learns how to care for and display the flag. An excellent
read!

Reading
The Flag Keeper is a terrific way for parents and kids to spend time
together and enhance their celebration of the Fourth of July. It helps
parents to keep their children reading and learning in the summer
months, and moms and dads will even learn something themselves. The book
can also be pulled out at other times of year, such as Columbus Day,
Veterans Day, and Flag Day.
-- Staten Island Family
Victoria Rose and the Big Bad Noise:
My daughter seemed to like the drawings. The illustrations really caught
her eye and captured her attention-she pointed out each of them use the
color yellow. I loved the idea of the book-the idea of connecting the
scary sounds with sounds that the child finds safe and happy.
