Libby's great aunt, Lobo, is from Mexico, but the United States has been
her home for many years, and she wants to become a U.S. citizen. At the
end of the week, Lobo will say the Pledge of Allegiance at a special
ceremony. Libby is also learning the Pledge this week, at school—at the
end of the week, she will stand up in front of everyone and lead
the class in the Pledge. Libby and Lobo practice together—asking
questions and sharing stories and memories—until they both stand tall
and proud, with their hands over their hearts.
