Unfurling the Freedom Flag – A 9/11 Story depicts the true story of how one American – Richard Nicholas Melito – was inspired to design and create the 9/11 “Freedom Flag” as a reminder to our nation to “Never Forget” the victims, heroes, and all who were involved in the world-changing events of Sept. 11, 2001. The narrative is skillfully written by award-winning elementary school teacher Tara Riley Krohn and beautifully illustrated in water color by student Emily Merry. A wonderful addition to any home, school classroom or library, this book is a wonderful way to pass on the importance of remembering to the next generation and generations to come. Age appropriate for K-5+.
