Heroes of Liberty will release a children’s book about late talk radio icon Rush Limbaugh next month, the latest in a series of biographies for youngsters that teach traditional conservative values through the stories of American heroes. The Limbaugh installment is designed to teach kids the importance of free speech and that it’s okay to speak your mind -- even if some people will disagree.

"We started Heroes of Liberty about a year ago, and it was because we saw a hole in the marketplace. We saw that this was a need that wasn't being filled," Heroes of Liberty editor Bethany Mandel told Fox News Digital.

I cannot think of a more deserving person to honor with this book than Rush who was a staunch supporter of the 1st Amendment and Free Speech.

RIP, you're sorely missed, El Rushbo.

I can’t say anymore than I miss that 3 hours of Rush’s voice.

Just the 1st Amendment? Rush stood for the entire Constitution,not just parts of it.

What is the target age group?

When I was a little kid, I just wanted to play outside all day...

I miss Rush. Man I used to plan my driving around when it’s EIB time. He was all about the First Amendment, from the time he was harassed by Clinton for causing hate speech in America, leading to the OKC bombing, to his support for Trump and contempt for the deep state. This man withstood all the slings and arrows of the left and liberalism...and got rich doing it, and I’m happy for him, just too bad he couldn’t live to be 100.

Horatio Alger books influenced many a young boy without a father for years after the civil war.

I purchased an iPod about 16 years ago just so I could listen to Rush during my commute on the Washington DC metro.

Man, I also really miss Rush and his 3 hours of pure truth.
I still remember him talking before Obama’s election and he said that the whole liberals playing the race card would only grow with his presidency not lessen; how right he was.

It's been well over a year since he left us and there hasn't been a day that I haven't missed him. There is still a gaping hole in that noon to 3 airtime and nobody is filling it. Nobody COULD fill it.

For whatever reason we may never know, God took Rush home at the moment we needed him most. Maybe there was divine timing in that. Maybe it's time we rise up and make use of the tools that Rush left to us, that he showed we had all along.

I feel the same way about Rush, I miss him dearly and no one other can fill the void.

Maybe it's time we rise up and make use of the tools that Rush left to us, that he showed we had all along.

Rush challenged us many times, we can't let him down.
