(4) K-3 Look Again Book series. In this Fourth of July story, Tommy, following his aunt's clues, travels across America from Philadelphia to San Francisco and many places in between. After an introductory poem addressed to readers, the story starts without explanation, and some of the rhymes are forced. Digital illustrations cleverly incorporate search-and-find images of famous Americans, symbols, paintings, and quotations.
