Overview

The third in the handbook series from TFK following PRESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES and 50 STATES, Our Nation's Documents offers quick and absorbing surveys of American History's foundational works with up-to-date scholarship and dozens of cool pictures, illustrations, and graphics. Nothing we could publish under the TFK brand could be more timely for young readers than a concise introduction to the great documents of the United States-from the Declaration of Independence to the U.S Constitution including the amendments and select excerpts from the Federalist Papers. But we don't stop there! Key speeches and laws are included, describing American governmental policy and ideation from colonial times to the present day. The text of these documents will be accompanied by explainer text that synthesizes the information and builds knowledge for the reader. Fact panels will offer details on times, place, and key figures involved with the documents to give readers context for classroom study and current events engagement. Now more than ever, kids want the real story. They are living in a time of fast and furious debate. This addition to the handbook series will give kids the basic information they need to know to understand the foundations of our government, and to give perspective on recent and unfolding events.
