A children’s company
dedicated to our founding principles
The Littlest Statesmen is a children’s company dedicated educating, enriching, and fostering a great love for our nation. TLS is hoping to serve as a resource offering educational books and supplements to teach our littlest patriots about America. Written with young children in mind, our first book is set for release this fall, hoping to ignite their love for learning about our nation’s great history. Educationally-rich, rhyming, full of hidden details, and filled with stunning hand-painted illustrations, we hope to capture the minds and hearts of our readers.
TLS was founded on the idea that even the youngest Americans can learn about their nation’s history. We believe it is our duty as parents to educate our children about our nation’s heroes and enduring truths. We are of the belief that children rise to the occasion and have every ability to learn these stories — if they are offered the opportunity. We are humbled to offer such resources to your family.
Here at The Littlest Statesmen, we love our country. We are indebted to those who came before us and are bound with the responsibility of sharing our rich history as a nation with our children beginning at a young age. Join our mission to raise the next generation of proud Americans.
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”

Grace Vitale
Illustrator, The Great George Washington
Grace Vitale is the illustrator of the debut book, The Great George Washington, which is scheduled to release fall 2025. As an artist, Grace has learned how to observe the world around her and extract truth from it, training herself to not just look, but to see. There is a need for objectivity and structure in life, and education is no exception; through classical training, she has found joy in the practice of good craftsmanship, and has begun a lifetime of creating beautiful things.
Grace works primarily in gouache illustration and oil painting. Whatever the medium, she aims to create work which captures the beauty of the subject before her.
Much beauty is overlooked in the world, missed by those who think it is rare and elusive. Beauty is here, now. Learning to look and to wonder are critical parts of finding joy and inspiration. Grace’s work is inspired by the fleeting moments which liven ordinary days. As a wife and mother, she feels an acute need to curate beauty within the home and teach her children to seek out and wonder at God's marvelous creation. It is important to capture the goodness found in the mundane, and she believes it necessary to do so—so she works.
