Gr 3–5—The youth of today will be the voters and community leaders of tomorrow. In that spirit, this series strives to instill in young readers the skills they'll need to become engaged, informed, and active citizens. The topics addressed here (such as how a state government runs, how to find valid information online, how to appropriately email an elected official) are ones that may not necessarily be covered in depth elsewhere, and they should help students become aware of their role in their communities and start them on the path to civic awareness. Short paragraphs and clear language, along with a jazzy, eye-catching layout with full-color, captioned photos, make these appealing choices.
