Fox News personality Ainsley Earhardt is helping to ring in America’s 250th birthday with a new children’s book promoting reasons why “we’re so thankful for the U.S.A.”
Released June 2, “America, I’m So Glad You Were Born: Celebrating the Country We Love,” is currently number one on Amazon’s children’s books chart, just ahead of the forthcoming Independence Day long weekend.
NEW RELEASE
America, I’m So Glad You Were Born: Celebrating the Country We Love
Earhardt, who is currently a co-host on “Fox & Friends,” says she was inspired to write the book to teach young readers about the “freedoms” they enjoy in the U.S. Appearing on Fox News‘ “Outnumbered” earlier this month, Earhardt says she wants kids to know that in America, “you can be anything you want to [be].”
Published by faith-based publisher, Zonderkidz, the 32-page children’s book features full-color illustrations from Kim Barnes. The rhyming text, meantime, celebrates everything from fireworks and backyard barbecues, to the “people, places, history and values that make our country extraordinary,” per a publisher description.
You can pick up a hardcover copy of the book for 22% off right now on Amazon here. Earhardt also narrates the audiobook version of “America,” which you can listen to here.
I’m So Glad You Were Born: Celebrating Who You Are
“America, I’m So Glad You Were Born” is the follow-up to the TV host’s 2022 book, “I’m So Glad You Were Born: Celebrating Who You Are,” which she says was inspired by a phrase she heard often from her mother, who wanted her to know how much she mattered. Though her mother passed away shortly after the book was published, Earhardt says her voice, and the pride her mother had in the country, helped inspire the new book as well.
