Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.
This powerful picture book is told from the perspective of the Alabama River. In addition to justice and equality, this story also reflects themes of strength, resilience, and hope. The illustrations have a 3D feel, popping off the page to tell their visual half of this important story.

🔥 @repdeliaramirez to @KristiNoem: “Bottom Line: You lie with impunity. You reject checks & balances. You ignore Congress & the courts… you can either resign, Trump will fire you, or you’ll be impeached.
You’re going to be held accountable. I’m going to make sure of that.”
