Happy Birthday to America!
I highly recommend the two books "Octavian Nothing" by MT Anderson. Different way of looking at the early years of our country. Some of my family is still in the middle of reading them, so I won't say anything else. No spoilers. But the books bring up some great questions. What do we mean by "Freedoms" and "Liberty" and the "Pursuit of Happiness"? How are you using your freedom?
Another recommendation: "Up" by Pixar/Disney. Wow. Loved it. Cried three different places. Sit through the credits. And have an adventure today!
