Henry the Star-Spangled Spaniel

By Amanda Martin

Introducing a curious and courageous Spaniel who travels back in time to celebrate America's very first birthday and discovers that birthdays aren't just about gifts--they're about history, freedom, and adventure.

It's Henry's birthday--Hip, hip, hooray But wait . . . what's this? The Fourth of July?

When Henry wakes up to balloons, hugs, and a brand-new red doghouse, he thinks the celebration is all for him. But Grandma has a surprise--Henry shares his birthday with the United States of America

As fireworks sparkle, Henry's new doghouse reveals a magical secret. WHOOSH Henry travels back in time to witness America's greatest moments--the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the triumph of the Revolutionary War, and the creation of the Constitution, where a brand-new country promised freedom and protection for its people.

With each stop in history, Henry begins to understand that birthdays are about more than presents--they're about courage, growth, and remembering how far we've come.

Back home under a sky bursting with red, white, and blue fireworks, Henry whispers, "Happy Birthday, America," knowing he's part of something much bigger than himself.

Filled with adventure, warmth, and gentle lessons about freedom and gratitude, Henry the Star-Spangled Spaniel introduces young readers to America's founding story in a magical and accessible way, reminding them that growing up, like a great nation, takes bravery, heart, and hope.
