Synopsis
The ultimate guide to the US Constitution―and the history of the US through the law of the land―for middle grade readers ages 10+. The book decodes the original document with a direct translation of the text, dissecting every word, phrase and idea. Then it connects the document to major historical figures and events using full-color illustrations and examples of how the document works in practice.
