"In her reading series for children, Revolutionary Readers for America's 250th, Jane Hampton Cook has provided a much-needed reminder of the blessings America and our flag represent to American citizens and people around the world. Much like the traditional readers I grew up with, Jane provides an 'Americana Experience' for children with wonderful illustrations, including text reflecting traditional values, history, exceptionalism and humble pride. This series captures the essence of the creation of America: The inspiration of God, the intent of our Founders, the struggles for freedom & liberty and the gratitude of Americans."

"Well done Jane! As I read through her newest patriotic series, I thought of so many ways to use the books. From use in school, homeschool, and of course gifts for others, her books beautifully remind in pictures and in words what Americans hold dear and what we must continue to protect for generations to come: this Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

"What a fun and positive way for kids to learn the love of America! This is critically important for our future," Sarah Dickens, Virginia

"As Americans prepare to celebrate the 250^th anniversary of our nation's founding in 1776, Jane Hampton Cook has given us an early birthday gift. Her four-book series, Revolutionary Readers for America's 250^th, are beautifully written and charmingly illustrated. They teach history and remind us of core tenets that lie at the heart of American ideals.

"Although written for children ages 5 - 10, older children and adults will find the books appealing for their simple yet profound patriotic messages. The promise of America still holds true today. Especially in times of tumult, we must fix our vision on the promise of what unites us, rather than divides us.

"Cook's series will delight and teach our youngest generation of Americans. And they will inspire older generations to reflect on our nation's remarkable 250^th milestone."
