American Democracy in Action

What duties does the president of the United States have? How do you vote in an election? These questions and many others are answered in this engaging series. Readers will expand their knowledge of relevant social studies and civics curriculum topics, such as Congress, the U.S. Constitution, the democratic process, the judicial system, and citizenship. This series helps to explain the history of the U.S. government, how it has changed over the years, its current role in our society, and each citizen's role within that government. Vibrant full-colour photographs, a detailed glossary, and informative graphic organizers provide extra insight into these important subjects.
