For over two hundred years America has been blessed by men and women of courage, foresight and innovation. Therefore Americans R Us is an innovative approach wherein 100 illustrated short poems and intros make important people, places and events come alive. With no chapters and no subject classification, this book has been designed for school students of all grades as an informal, simple guide to Americana. Teachers and parents are encouraged to use the book as they see fit. Although there were thousands of other important topics to choose from, I hope I am forgiven for not including them. In that regard as a former high school teacher, perhaps I will have opened a door through which America’s youth can discover a small part of their rich heritage and enjoy the journey as they do so.
