teddy bear cousins to the children of our American troops who are
fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan.
All funds go specifically toward the costs of the teddy bears
and shipping.

Published just for this Project!
It is the Fourth of July in Bearwood USA
and the Huggabear Family has a wonderful day planned to
celebrate! Join the Huggabears for a delicious partriotic
picnic, beautiful decorations, fun family games and of course
the grand fireworks display from the town of Bearford Falls
shimmering brilliantly over old Mount Bearford! Discover the
important lessons that Kooshla and Saboo learn about their
country, their flag, their history, the brave Veterans of their
nation and the blessing of having freedom. God bless the U.S.A.!
******************************
While teaching her then two year
old daughter Aven how to sing The Star Spangled Banner
Angelique told the inspiring story of Francis Scott Key and how
it was he came to write our National Anthem. Even then at the
tender age of two Aven understood the significance of the song.
From then on it has been a priority for Josh and Angelique to
teach their children the importance of respecting our flag,
learning our nation's history, appreciating their freedom and
honoring the courageous Veterans who are responsible for giving
us the gift of freedom. Of course Kooshla and Saboo are learning
about the "United States of Abearica", but it is our hope that
American families everywhere will use this book to begin
teaching their children as early as possible to truly love and
honor our country and hold it high in prayer.
This book makes a wonderful teaching tool for
any
American family to have in their home.
