Your stepping stone to understanding the U.S. Constitution. This book sets out our founding document like a great dinner table conversation complete with funny stories that bring the Constitution to life. We'll have a quick appetizer (the Preamble) and then skip straight to the kids favorite part of the meal...dessert (The Bill of Rights). Of course we come back to the meat and potatoes (Articles I-VII) and even leave room for some after dinner coffee (Amendments XI-XXVI). If you need a little salt and pepper you'll find it sprinkled throughout the text in the form of funny and insightful comments and the dinner conversation will never get slow as "Dinner Table Conversation Starters" appear regularly to take you one step beyond what you've learned in the text.
