Finding ways to expose children to important speeches is always tricky. In this large picture book reprint, originally from 1947, now fresh for 2013 children of this generation can pour over the illustrated pages and truly get an education. There is a two-page spread with a phrase on each page. The Afterword is full of fascinating information followed by a legend with miniature images and description of the images with interpretations. This is gorgeous and able to provide hours of entertainment and interest.

*Thanks to Albert Whitman & Co for providing a copy for review.*
