About the Authors
Steve Lilly
Growing up in an Christian educator’s home meant taking learning-centered vacations that, to many, would be labeled “boring,” but, to Steve, proved to be inspiring. Memories are filled with taking afternoon drives, a weekend jaunt or a vacation to battlefields, museums, monuments, and other historic venues. This early appreciation for times past led Steve to pursue a History Major at Christian College. Today, his knack of remembering unique tales of history enrich his teaching opportunities, whether in a classroom or church setting, and his simple lessons given to his growing daughters. What joy to be able to repeat those history “vacations” now with his own family. Truly HIStory has come alive for Steve from boyhood to adult.
Rebekah Lilly
“Carschooling” for many of her grade school years added depth to learning not experienced by most. Geography, people, and stories all brought a greater appreciation for those who have gone before to build the land we love today. With a desire to create a love for learning just as she had been given, Rebekah completed an Education degree at Christian College. A Master’s in History stretched her first-hand knowledge to include more details and deeper philosophical background, while her current pursuit of a doctorate enhances and further secures a strong foundation in Christian Education. Yet, by far, the most challenging has and will continue to be for some time, the homeschooling of her own children. As a Daughter of the American Revolution (DAR) member, Rebekah loves to research American history, and with an almost giddy intensity, she insists upon sharing her findings with the family. Americana, learning and an appreciation for all that God has given are contagious in the Lilly house.
AbiNoelle Lilly (a.k.a. “Tweety-Pie”)
Talking since she was born, a learning-lover, an avid Bible Memory student and all-around reader, AbiNoelle soaks up all that her Mommy and Daddy can teach. Following in her parents’ footsteps, she loves to travel, visit unique places, make new friends, and teach her little sister, AmiJoy, all she knows. Her PopPop (Dr. Ronnie Williamson, Evangelist for The Voice in the Wilderness) dubbed her “Tweety-Pie”, and now folks from all over follow her adventures on the Tweety-Pie Vimeo Channel, are challenged to memorize God’s Word with her, and are fascinated to learn the Truths of History in her Junior Tutor Classroom.
AmiJoy Lilly - Special Contributor through cooperation! Her “Joy” and energy is contagious.
Special Thanks
Much time, proofing, research, critique and review have been given by many, including Mr. Jeffrey A. Cobble (Attorney at Law), Dr. and Mrs. John Reese (Pensacola Christian College History and Education Faculty), The Eric Johns Family (Our dear friends and homeschoolers), and Miss Scarlet Jernigan (Ph.D. Candidate and friend). To them, we say a special “Thank You.” Additional thanks to our former student, Laurel Owenby, for using her talents to create the cover artwork and “Tweety-Pie” illustrations. We would also like to acknowledge the inspiration found through the ministry of Dr. Chuck Harding, Pastor T. Michael Creed, Dr. Ronnie Williamson and The Voice in the Wilderness, and a book greatly utilized and recommended, The Constitution Made Easy by Michael Holler.

Review Statements for The Constitution Defender
"The Constitution Defender is a must-have for school-age children. This important resource thoroughly and simply walks through the constitution with language and creative pictures that appeal to children. We live in a time that our country needs to understand where we came from and why we are here. America is blessed by the Almighty God. The principles that are found in our Constitution and taught in this GREAT children's resource are founded on the Word of God that will never return unto God void. As pastor of Temple Baptist Church of Asheville, NC, and director of Awake America NC West I am thankful for the opportunity to give my full support and endorsement for the work of AbiNoelle Lilly and The Constitution Defender."

The Constitution Defender is a wonderful literary piece to aid young minds in a better understanding of the founding documents of the United States. The book is written at a level easily understood by younger children while still being effective at any age. Teaching our children the importance of these documents and the understanding of them is essential if we are to keep the liberties we enjoy as a free nation.

It is refreshing to discover a children’s history book which is both accurate and inspirational—The Constitution Defender is such a work.
Steve and Beka Lilly, along with their daughter, “Tweety-Pie,” have managed to accomplish what eludes too many authors of children’s non-fiction works today. Their work is didactic yet not boring; fact-filled yet not too cluttered; and true to the historical account yet not pedantic.
A brief perusal of The Constitutional Defender will cause one to conclude that the authors are passionate about their subject and determined to reduce the complexity of history to a child’s level of understanding while maintaining the integrity of the historical train of events which produced the U.S. Constitution.
This work is truly an ornament to the genre of children’s historical narratives! Furthermore, it is needed now more than ever, for “if the foundations are destroyed, what can God’s people do?

"For such a TIME as this" reflects the urgency of The Constitution Defender book for children. Oh, and may I add adults as well. This book will help you to understand the Times in which we live. "The Constitution Defender" will equip your family to stand as a Citizen of The United States of America. Get it. Read it. Be a Constitution Defender!

I write to give an enthusiastic endorsement of the Lilly Family’s excellent book, The Constitution Defender. You family has certainly outdone itself in producing this book!
While most of us agree that there is too little emphasis placed on the U.S. Constitution in today’s schools, this book is laid out in such a way as to present young people with superb visuals and colors which will make a study of Constitution both enjoyable and memorable.
Your book gives clever summarization of each article using charts, graphs, and lists, etc. in a way that I find especially appealing.
The artwork, format, and general layout of the book is absolutely stunning! I feel that young people will be drawn to the book for its “eye-appeal.”
But most importantly, the book is historically accurate and textually sound in its presentation of the information about the Constitution. I give it a 10/10 rating!

The book The Constitution Defender is the most wonderful book on the Constitution. Every child needs this book. Thank you so much for putting it together. God has truly blessed us with such a wonderful document.

LOCAL AUTHOR WRITES INCREDIBLE BOOK ABOUT THE CONSTITUTION
Staff Report
Asheville NC - 10/19/21
Abinoelle Lilly aka "Tweety-Pie" is an incredible young lady and author of her new book, "The Constitution Defender - A Tweety Pie Junior Tutor Book."

Who was the single most influential person in the shaping of America? Find the answers to these questions and more when you join Tweety-Pie in the Junior Tutor Classroom as she follows the fingerprints of God and explores the true history surrounding the writing of the United States Constitution.

With a clear and simple overview of all seven Articles, kids and adults will understand the key concepts intended by our founders and be encouraged to become The Constitution Defender for this generation.
The Constitution Defender is more needed today than at any time in American history when too many of our children have been purposefully misled about true American history and the ideals that have set our nation apart. Not only is this work an excellent example of American history content, but gives information to our children that is no longer easily accessible or has even been suppressed by teachers or leaders with an anti-American agenda.
God Bless

Today, citizen knowledge about the Constitution has dropped to the lowest level in modern history, and the presentation of America’s founding has been replaced with inaccurate narratives designed to aid a particular agenda rather than acquaint rising generations with historical truth. While the average length of a constitution in the history of the world is only 17 years (cf. Cornell Law School study), America just celebrated its 234th birthday under our Constitution, making us the most successful and longest on-going constitutional republic in the history of the world. Studying the United States Constitution is absolutely vital for all Americans--especially young students. Books that focus on preserving the true foundations of our government and institutions are every day becoming more and more important to read and appreciate. This book certainly reflects a patriotic heart and a true civic concern for our country.
