2008-11-10 - Great History Lesson
This book was great. It's a good history lesson for kids and adults on the creation of our Constitution.
2008-11-05 - Excellent book for children...
We the People, is another great book from Lynne Cheney. I've read it to our 8 and 6 yr old boys a couple of times...they loved the illustrations. Our 6 yr old sort of lost interest by the end, but then again he's 6! LOL! I'd say its good for children age 7 & up.
2008-11-03 - Well written
Although written for an elementary level, the story of the constitution by Mrs. Cheney was interesting and well written for all ages. A good picture of the struggles and authenticity of the writers of the constitution. Recommended for any age reader.
2008-10-24 - Our thoughts
While we basically enjoyed the book, there is one serious omission that would make the book better - there should be a copy of the Constitution in the book. A copy of the Constitution would tie it all together.
2008-10-23 - We the People
Book was too deep for my 6 year old grandchild, but I really liked the way she presented the Constitution. After watching the "John Adams" series on HBO, I am excited to read about that period and want my children & their kids to appreciate our government.
