Descriere
Constitution Translated for Kids - winner of the 2011 Gelett Burgess Children's Book Award for Education (Government and Politics), the "Mom's Choice Award" and a "Best Books Award" - is a simple, widely acclaimed, non ideological translation of the entire U. S. Constitution, side-by-side with the original 1787 text. Teachers hail the accompanying free Teacher's Guide as an extraordinary resource to teach the Constitution to all ages. About the Author: Cathy Travis worked on Capitol Hill for 25 years as a communications director, senior advisor and political consultant for various Members of Congress until her early retirement. A native of Jonesboro, Arkansas, Travis graduated from Arkansas State University and resides in Washington, D. C. Her first book, the award-winning Constitution Translated for Kids, was hailed by partisans in all major political parties as an even-handed, non-ideological rendition of the founding U. S. document. Travis herself has been a registered Independent for over a decade. Since 2008, she has been writing books full time, publishing: TARGET SITTING, REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE, and ELECTED.
