"This new government series is a real winner. It is easy enough for a second grader to understand the concepts, but complete enough for a fourth grader to learn a lot from the text." --Library Media Connection, "This new government series is a real winner. It is easy enough for a second grader to understand the concepts, but complete enough for a fourth grader to learn a lot from the text. Each page has a captioned photograph or illustration highlighting the concept. Each book covers a different part of the government including the different branches, along with important documents and campaigning. The book on the presidency has current photos of Obama, but it also has historic photos and paintings of past presidents. The books could be used for a read-aloud since the information is short and the photos and captions will keep the reader interested." --Library Media Connection, "With as much pep as a Sousa march, these titles delineate the hows and whys of U.S. government.... While each book stands by itself, as a whole, they emphasize the relationships between the government's many parts." --School Library Journal, Series Made Simple, "With as much pep as a Sousa march, these titles delineate the hows and whys of U.S. government. Similar to Gareth Stevens's 'Know Your Government' (2009), the writing is direct and engaging. The illustrations are a compelling blend of historical photos, stock photos, and period sketches. Each image is captioned with information that supplements the text. Red and blue design elements and borders look crisp and lively against the white backgrounds. While each book stands by itself, as a whole, they emphasize the relationships between the government's many parts. All of the volumes are also available as interactive ebooks." --School Library Journal, Series Made Simple

- 0***1 (1566)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis book arrived within the time period given and was in the 'very good' condition described. Unfortunately, only being packaged in a plastic bag to traverse the Atlantic meant that all four corners got a battering (I would be happy to pay bit more in future for a bit of cardboard support in packaging) but all in all, the price was good and overall service for books that are difficult to get over here, I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend this seller. Will buy again from them.
