One Nation

Author Devin Scillian and illustrator Pam Carroll weave their magic around the symbols of Americana that make us proud in One Nation: America by the Numbers, a follow-up to A is for America: An American Alphabet. "I count to THREE just like that/I count the corners on my hat/A THREE-cornered hat from a Boston store/One just like the Minutemen wore/Or count the ships. There's an idea/The Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria." More than a counting book, One Nation illuminates the landmarks and treasures that are uniquely American.
