A book for every patriotic American kid!

Never before has the riveting American saga of "The Star-Spangled Banner" been so beautifully and thoroughly presented. This info-packed story of our national anthem includes:

★ Illustrated lyrics
★ The fascinating history of the War of 1812 and the battle that inspired Francis Scott Key to pen the words
★ Musical notation
★ Historical images
★ A reproduction of Key''s original manuscript

Caldecott Medalist Peter Spier''s magnificent tribute takes readers from our anthem''s turbulent origins at the Battle of Baltimore through the flag''s significance in modern-day America. It''s a must-have for every American family''s library.

★ A Bank Street Book of the Year
★ An American Bookseller Pick of the Lists

"Spier . . . is one of our finest creators of children''s books alive."—The New York Times Book Review

"Beautifully illustrated by the award-winning artist."—Publishers Weekly
