I Pledge Allegiance

Firefly & Fern Summary

In this beautifully illustrated picture book, Pat Mora explores what the Pledge of Allegiance means through the eyes of a young Mexican American girl and her great-aunt. Together, they discover that pledging allegiance is about more than reciting words—it's about understanding community, belonging, and what it means to be part of something larger than yourself. A meaningful introduction to citizenship and cultural identity for young readers.
