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.

1. Already with a 50% discount?

Maybe that's a good thing, but it wouldn't seem so. Can anyone enlighten me?

2. It's called a "pre-holiday sale"...

.... it's one reason why retail sales are the most they've been in half a year.

4. Really?

I didn't know that. So I guess now would be the time to do some holiday shopping? (I'm not much of a shopper until I absolutely need to.)

5. You didn't hear? Christmas shopping season starts in August now.

6. Yep .... retailers are basically taking the sales they give you AFTER Christmas...

... and doing them now. Happy shopping! ;)
