Each title operates on the premise that a group of children is learning about a symbol by participating in a class lesson or by going on a field trip to see the symbol itself. <strong>The storylike narrative is simple, engaging, and informative.</strong> The author pulls in images and comparisons that help the youngest elementary school students grasp new concepts ('What's a symbol? Ethan asks. A symbol is something that stands for something else, Mr. Gomez answers. Like a green light means go! says Jolie.'). The bright, cartoon illustrations feature a variety of people: men, women, children, black, white, and Latino, and one character appears in a wheelchair. <strong>All in all, an appealing first look at American emblems.</strong> --<em>School Library Journal</em>, Series Made Simple</p>-- "Journal" (11/1/2014 12:00:00 AM)<br>
