Made in the USA Hero Books.

Dr. Dennis Denenberg
The cornerstone of my work is 50 American Heroes Every Kid Should Meet! which I co-authored with Lorraine Roscoe. It is a 2006 Notable Children?s Trade Book, it was featured in USA Today on March 20, and I was interviewed on CNN Live in April about my award-winning work. It is an interactive ?kid-friendly? book that motivates kids (and adults) to explore the lives of heroes at home or at school. Each page includes an important quote by each hero, a short biography about each hero, photographs, a section where readers are encouraged to extend their learning, and other books about that hero. Over 50,000 copies have already been sold!
The list of 50 heroes profiled is available here.
You can look inside to view a sample profile of Roberto Clemente (in pdf format) here.

The following is a reply from Heros 4 US to our question – "Are your products Made in the USA?"

How do you know the products you have listed are Made in the USA?
Before including products in our database we review the advertiser’s website and/or contact them to ascertain the origin of their products. Some advertisers sell both Made in USA products and foreign ones. Therefore we highly recommend you review FAQ 2.

We immediately investigate any complaints regarding deceptive Country of Origin claims. If we determine an advertiser's claim is not truthful we will immediately remove the product/s from our database and suspend our relationship with the Company making the claim.

To document your complaint, email us by using our Contact Us page. We can only respond to complaints that have been submitted in writing.

What does Made in USA mean?
There is no law requiring most products to be labeled Made In USA, or have any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes (see our Big Secret tab), if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on its label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. This is true because the product without the country origin on its label has at least some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not.

Note: Imported products are required by law to country of origin on their label and products partially Made In USA do not. To answer this question completely reviewing our Labeling Tips 1, 2 & 3. These tips are accessible from scrolling to the bottom of our home page clicking Browse All Tips button.
