Jeff Gottesfeld and New York Times bestseller Honor Flight: Celebrating America’s Veterans. 

Jeff Gottesfeld writes for page, stage, screen and television. He has won awards from the American Library Association, the Association of Jewish Libraries, the Christophers, the National Council for the Social Studies and the American Alliance for Theatre & Education. Raised in Teaneck NJ, Gottesfeld is the author of several notable children’s books, including the New York Times bestseller Honor Flight: Celebrating America’s Veterans. This book, which we will discuss in length in our featured conversation, is an emotional picture book that highlights the Honor Flight Network. 
Told through the moving first-person perspective of an anonymous aging veteran, the narrative follows his "final mission" to Washington, D.C., where he and a diverse group of fellow service members visit major war memorials and receive the hero's homecoming many never originally experienced. The story captures both the grandeur of the monuments and the deep personal impact of the trip. Drawing from Gottesfeld’s firsthand experience as a volunteer "Guardian," the book explores powerful themes of remembrance and gratitude, ensuring that the sacrifices of past generations are not forgotten by young readers.
