I'm all for board books having simple story lines but this book is ridiculous. According to this book, the Fourth of July is about picnics, playing games, and watching a parade. Seriously?? No mention of pride for our country or our flag, no mention of what Fourth of July really means, or anything. I know it's a baby book but babies aren't stupid and that doesn't mean we can't mention at least SOMETHING important about the Fourth of July; it's a sorry excuse for a book about a national holiday. I wonder if Corduroy's Memorial Day book is about bbq's too...
