Many of the rights we consider most important to the United States—from freedom of speech to a fair trial—are in the Bill of Rights.

A True Book: Why it Matters series introduces young readers to the branches of the US government, the constitution, and more while engaging them to become productive citizens.

This series includes an age-appropriate introduction to curriculum-relevant subjects and a robust resource section that encourages independent study. Readers will learn how these important laws came to be and how people continue to discuss and debate them even today.
