Put together in a kid-friendly context, You’re a Grand Old Flag is a book designed and illustrated by Norman Rockwell, with George M. Cohan as the song’s lyricist. In essence, the lyrical text is known as a song that demonstrates patriotism and respect for the United States of America. Rockwell’s son, John, comprised an epilogue that is included in the book’s introduction. A portion of that includes the significance that Norman became quite influencing with. He writes, “These themes of Americana were dear to Norman Rockwell, and I believe he would be pleased with this collection and its pairing with “You’re a Grand Old Flag”. Overall, the book not only is musically driven but also adds an artistic component. The historical accuracy of Rockwell’s paintings is also quite important, due to its depiction of events of the American history. While it may seem more outdated, it is also a traditional tune that many younger generations should know about during their lifetime.
