This book talks about the 4th of July.
In the beginning they showed a kid waving America’s
Flag to celebrate the 4th of July. They talk about the
Parades that they do.
In the middle they showed fireworks lighting up the sky
At night. They talk about church bells that ring out when
They started out in Philadelphia Pennsylvania for its 1st
One on 7/4/1777.

Do with fireworks. Some people enjoy watching the
Dazzling fireworks shows with live music.
