Washington, D.C. is hometown for every American. Martha Day Zschock is
not only a brilliant artist, whose Journey Around books have captured
readers of all ages in Boston, New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, San
Francisco, and more. She is also an educator, who designed her
bestselling series to teach children about our great American places.
This is far more than an alphabet book. Each page is headed by an
alliterative sentence that evokes an important theme - the A page reads,
America's anthem awakens awe - and each page also features a paragraph
of history.
