Rep. Michael Waltz, R-Fla., is already a member of the Armed Services
Committee, a Green Beret veteran and former White House counterterrorism policy
adviser, but he added children's book author to his resume this month when his
latest book he was published. 

 

"I wrote the book because in the wake of what we've seen with COVID and COVID
lockdowns exposing so much of the garbage that's now being taught to our kids,
in the wake of what we saw with the backlash in Virginia, with the Youngkin
race and now what we're seeing with Disney and their woke agenda exposed. Now
we need to take our kids’ education back. We need to get good conservative
content to them," Waltz told Fox News Digital. 

 

Waltz teamed up with Braves Books, which aims to "teach foundational
conservative values" by "dispelling the progressive agenda aimed at teaching
our kids all the wrong lessons," according to its official online store. 

 

"Dawn of the Brave" is the ninth and final book in a series, as each character
previously had their own adventures. All the characters reflect traditional
values of faith, family, the right of every family to defend themselves, and
Waltz – who joined other conservatives who penned the previous books -- was
able to bring them all together to work as a team defending Freedom Island from
evil rat wolves. 

 

"It tries to teach our young, our young kids is that serving your country,
serving each other, serving your community, and that self-sacrifice is
something that needs to be taught, and they need to emulate and that'll make
our country greater and make them better citizens," he said. 

 

Waltz, who objects to everything from universities to elementary schools
pushing a liberal agenda, feels conservatives need to take action. 

 

"In the case of Florida, where they're opposing a law that says we shouldn't
be talking about sex and gender for five-year-olds and free kindergartners and
first-graders. So I think they're the left, it will be headlong on their
agenda. But we have to start pushing back. We have to start fighting back," he
said. "Complaining about it and pushing back isn't enough. How do we fill that
void with traditional conservative values in content? That's what ‘Dawn of the
Brave’ and Brave books seeks to do."

 

Waltz hopes "Dawn of the Brave," which is aimed at children age 6-10, helps
readers recognize that everyone has strengths and weakness, but teamwork allows
people to come together for the greater good. 

 

"A cheetah named Rebel believes that she can defend the island by herself,
that she's the fastest, that she's the strongest and the first time the pirate
wolves come, she kind of gets her butt kicked a little bit and has to go back
and lick her wounds," Waltz said. "In conversations with the other characters,
she figures out they can help her, and she can help them. That's something we
learn on special forces teams as I'm a Green Beret that has served all over the
world, but that I think applies to all aspects of life." 

 

Waltz said the characters "truly sacrifice their own comfort through training
and very difficult exercises" to successfully defend Freedom Island as a team.
The bad guys in the book, known as evil rat wolves, represent forces that aim
to take away freedoms and rights, similar to what Russia is currently
attempting in Ukraine. 

 

"As President Reagan said, ‘We're about one generation away from losing those
freedoms,’" Waltz said. "I think it’s a perfect time to start planting these
seeds."

 

The book is not available on Amazon, and can only be ordered directly through
Brave Books’ website <[link removed]> and subscribe to the monthly
service that provides books from conservative authors to children on a regular
basis. 

 

"Children will receive one book a month. We've had other notable conservative
thinkers and leaders like my colleague, Representative Dan Crenshaw, former
Navy SEAL. We've had Dana Loesch really late talking about the right to defend
yourself that's baked in our constitution. There's another book about the
Constitution itself and how you have a founding document with a set of
principles that would stand the test of time and societal pressures," Waltz
said. "Each book will have a different theme and importantly, $15 from every
subscription… will go to Samaritan's Purse, which has been doing such wonderful
work for Ukrainian refugees." 

 

Waltz said Brave Books are made in America, and he didn’t want retailers who
rely on China and Chinese manufacturing to offer the product – even if being
available on Amazon and major retailers would result in increased sales. 

 

"We have to lead by example," he said. 

 

Waltz previously wrote the book "Warrior Diplomat: a Green Beret's Battles
from Washington to Afghanistan."
