A very personal story of mine has been reprinted in a new Chicken Soup for the Soul collection, out today. Celebrating the Spirit of America begins with my piece “I Pledge Allegiance.” It’s a story about my relationship with my grandpa–a World War II veteran–and how after I lost him when I was 11, I still carried with me his deep love for this country.
This story was first published in another Chicken Soup book over a decade ago.
I am of the firm belief that we must maintain hope in America and all it can be, no matter the darkness of the present moment. In the words of the publisher: “No politics. Just what unites, not what divides us.”
You can find this new release wherever books are sold, and specifically at Sam’s Club, Walmart, and Barnes & Noble.
