McBride‘s writing, characters, and atmosphere are second to none. This was packed with symbolism which went right over my head and if there was a plot, I don‘t have even a nodding acquaintance with it.

“They didn‘t have enough room in their little house to put the big flag together. “
A teacher could use this book to introduce the history of the flag, and the symbolism within. Students could design their own flags after reading the story and discuss the symbolism behind their flags.
pickWeek 9: Historical Fiction! Amazing story about flags and the makers. This story has many clues that pertain to the timing of this story. The illustrations are bright and beautiful, really matching the story. Published: 1988.
so-soThis was fine .. I was annoyed at the MC and thought the motivations were a bit sketchy. I liked the setting of the ren fair. If you want a super light romance with about 2 sexy scenes this one is for you.
As many know I live in Asheville NC. I have been incredibly lucky, my apartment only took very light wind damage and I live in an area that didn‘t flood. My workplace was under water to the ceiling, no idea when we‘ll get the shop operational again. But I am safe, my power is back but I have no water. FEMA distribution started today, so I have bottled water and I have plenty of food. So many are much worse off than I am. Please keep NC in your⬇️
