我歌頌你：寫給我女兒的信

美國總統歐巴馬(Obama)，親自為孩子們所編寫的繪本，要向兒童述說美國先驅人物的故事，歐巴馬在書中介紹了，包括美國開國總統華盛頓(George Washington)、美國職棒大聯盟第一位非裔球員羅賓森(Jackie Robinson)、傳奇女畫家喬琪亞‧歐姬芙(Georgia O’ Keeffe)…等，13位美國先驅人物。並由知名插畫家郎恩(Lorne Long)繪圖。

本書不但將文字與圖像、故事與歷史作了最棒的結合。更讓孩子們藉由了先驅們的努力，明白成功所需的人格特質，更歌頌著追尋夢想和打造自己前程的潛力。

In this tender, beautiful letter to his daughters, President Barack Obama has written a moving tribute to thirteen groundbreaking Americans and the ideals that have shaped our nation. From the artistry of Georgia O'Keeffe, to the courage of Jackie Robinson, to the patriotism of George Washington, President Obama sees the traits of these heroes within his own children, and within all of America's children.

Breathtaking, evocative illustrations by award-winning artist Loren Long at once capture the personalities and achievements of these great Americans and the innocence and promise of childhood.

This beautiful book celebrates the characteristics that unite all Americans, from our nation's founders to generations to come. It is about the potential within each of us to pursue our dreams and forge our own paths. It is a treasure to cherish with your family forever.

Barack Obama is the forty-fourth president of the United States. Born in Hawaii to a mother from Kansas and a father from Kenya, he himself is now the father of two daughters, Malia and Sasha. It was spending time with them that inspired him to write Of Thee I Sing. President Obama’s proceeds will be donated to charity.

Loren Long is the bestselling and award-winning author and illustrator of many beloved books for children, including Drummer Boy and the New York Times bestseller Otis. Born in Missouri and raised in Lexington, Kentucky, he is also the illustrator of Watty Piper’s The Little Engine That Could, as well as Toy Boat, I Dream of Trains, and Wind Flyers. He lives in Ohio with his wife, Tracy, their two sons, Griffith and Graham, and their dogs, Elle and Moon.
