Our Constitution (I Know America)

Describes the creation of the document which sets out the rules of government for our country.

We used this book in our homeschooling class to learn about the Constitution. The book was informative, easy to read and understand, without talking above the head of my 11 year old. The book took us from the beginning of the Constitution to the present age. It explained the how's, why's, and who's of everything involved in the development of our Constitution. The book explained the Bill of Rights and listed the first 10 Amendments and what they mean to us. I think for a brief overview of our Constitution, for grades 4th to 7th, this book is ideal. I think the content is "too much" for ages specified by the publisher (4 to 8).
