AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
Voting in America is seen as a fairly ubiquitous right at this point, but the actual who/what/when/where/why can be a bit more complicated. This easy-to-read picture book explains the details of voting in the United States. Each page has fun illustrations, answers an important question about voting (How do we know who to choose in an election?), and includes a few interesting tidbits or stories. The basic heart of the book encourages young readers to get involved and get educated on the important subject of voting.
This is a fantastic nonfiction picture book that checks all the boxes for me. The information is accurate and important, the text is detailed but still written in a way kids can understand, and the illustrations are on point. This is the sort of book middle readers could handle on their own, and elementary age readers could utilize with a teacher's guidance. I think its a book that should be used in elementary social studies classes, for sure! Overall a great book that covers all your bases when teaching students about voting in America.
