I have read many of the A True Book series for young readers and have enjoyed them all. Each has a wonderful kid friendly layout with nice photographs, interesting facts, timelines, lists for additional resources, and a glossary of important key words. This would be a wonderful addition to any elementary or middle school library or classroom. The edition on The Declaration of Independence is probably the best book I have read on the topic for young readers. High school age students would also benefit from this resource.
