Each spread, sumptuously illustrated by award-winning artist Kadir Nelson, depicts a stirring tableau, from the view of the Statue of Library at Ellis Island to civil rights marchers shoulder to shoulder, to a spacecraft at Cape Canaveral blasting off. This book is an ode to America then and now, from sea to shining sea, and is now accessible to a much larger audience in this bilingual edition.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Sarvinder Naberhaus is the author of <i>Boom Boom </i>and the forthcoming <i>Lines</i>.
