Finally, Id like to thank my husband, Newt. His enthusiasm for Ellis the Elephant and Sweet Land of Liberty has been my true inspiration.
as families rode together in covered wagon trains.
This long journey would put their courage to the test,
but the settlers didnt stop and forward on they pressed.
These Americans were known as the great pioneers,
and they would learn to prosper on the new frontier.
With much work we do great things, as hard as they may seem!
Thomas Edison made the light bulb, Alexander Graham Bell the phone.
When the Wright Brothers invented the airplane,
it was the first time anyone had flown!
arriving in a country they had never seen before.
Speaking different languages, they all shared a dream
to live together in a land where freedom was supreme.
There were so many people coming to this spot,
that America became known as the great melting pot!
Through Ellis Island these new Americans came.
And Ellis was delighted, just to read his name!
He learned what they did to make freedom last.
Our freedom was earned by great women and men.
We must never forget how brave they have been.
They boldly stood up when their country did call.
Without them we might not have freedom at all!
President Kennedy said, We must do it soon!
Many watched as the rocket flew into the sky.
Bound for the moon, the astronauts did fly.
They raised a flag and began to explore.
It was something that no one had done before.
that many have done to help those in need.
Whenever theres a challenge, be it far or near,
Americans are more than ready to volunteer.
He would come back tomorrow and keep reading away.
Now it was time for a celebration
a birthday party for our great nation.
Ellis watched the fireworks and could clearly see,
that America is special the land of the free!
