Libby's great aunt, Lobo, is from Mexico, but the United States has been
her home for many years, and she wants to become a U.S. citizen. At the
end of the week, Lobo will say the Pledge of Allegiance at a special
ceremony. Libby is also learning the Pledge this week, at school--at the
end of the week, she will stand up in front of everyone and lead the
class in the Pledge. Libby and Lobo practice together--asking questions
and sharing stories and memories--until they both stand tall and proud,
with their hands over their hearts.
