Written and illustrated by Tori Meyer

Through the eyes of a finch, young Lee takes an imaginary journey around the world following an American Soldier. During this journey, she begins to understand what freedoms are, and why we thank those who vow to protect them.

What began as an attempt to explain why we thank American soldiers and veterans to her young girls, a children's book slowly blossomed. It began with an oil painting of a beautiful tree at the Ft. Logan National Cemetery in Denver, Colorado. Many brilliant folks gave their time and feedback necessary to produce this book. Their valuable time enabled the family to donate the book proceeds to Honor Flight, an organization that honors American Veterans. Tori has a journalism degree from the University of Colorado, and is a continuing student of art. She's a full-time mom, and enjoys incorporating her girls' artwork into her own.
