On June 1, 1996, Marian Wright Edelman, president and founder of the Children's Defense Fund, held a rally at the Lincoln Memorial to encourage people everywhere to Stand for Children. The anniversary of that day is now celebrated every year as a day for Americans to reconfirm their commitment to children. A version of Mrs. Edelman's speech, with its message of hope, faith, and inclusion, is presented in this powerful picture book. Young readers can explore the nation's commitment to their future, and their ability to affect each other's lives. Multilayered quilts of fabrics and photographs illustrate these inspiring words and reflect the joy, energy, and rich diversity of our nation's children. 28 pages, no marks or tears.
