Classic Americana and patriotism meet in this picture book version of the beloved song "America the Beautiful."Katharine Lee Bates's timeless and beloved poem alongside art by award-winning author and artist Wendell Minor, capturing the magnificent beauty of the United States. Celebrate America's ideals of togetherness and marvel at classic illustrations of her natural and historical wonders: from Yosemite National Park and the Garden of the Gods, to Mount Rushmore and Plymouth Plantation. This reissued edition includes an updated introduction, information about the poet, the composer of the song, the sheet music, a map and brief information about all twenty-one American locations depicted in the book.
This book is gorgeous. I actually got this book from a giveaway pile and thought, “Oh, this is just a book with a patriotic song (one of the best patriotic songs in my opinion!) and some illustrations to go with it. I’ll go ahead and take it.” I didn’t know what a treasure this book is. The illustrations are truly stunning. I love the way different areas and time periods are represented. It will be the perfect addition to our American history/geography/patriotic songs homeschool curriculum this year. It’s definitely a book worth purchasing.
