A Fourth of July children’s adventure with fireworks, friendship, and a surprise in the sky. When Lily, Max, Whiskers, and Zoe attend a Fourth of July picnic, they expect flags, food, music, glow sticks, and fireworks. But Zoe notices something far above the celebration. Blinking lights appear beyond the fireworks, and Zoe believes alien visitors may be watching Earth’s noisy holiday from the sky. The visitors seem curious, but the flashes and booms could easily be misunderstood. With Whiskers watching closely and Lily and Max helping explain the meaning of Independence Day, Zoe must show the visitors that the fireworks are not a warning. They are part of a joyful American celebration.

🐻‍❄️Happy Birthday USA!
