I See the Sun in the USA (Satya House Publications, October, 2018) is the newest in the award-winning, critically-acclaimed “I See the Sun” children’s book series. This latest book uniquely brings children into the social and interracial realities of this country.

Geared to children age five and up, parents, elementary school teachers and librarians, the book serves as a unifying force for children in a divided country. It points out differences and similarities between American children with unique cultural backgrounds with an overarching emphasis on those elements which bind us together as a country and welcome our diversity.

I See the Sun in the USA tells the story of Stella and the children and families she meets, with a variety of ethnicities and cultures, while on a family vacation. Each child is also presented by a family tree depicting the blending of their families, hence the blending of American culture. Glorious illustrations express and enhance the storyline.
