Book, Founding Fathers! by Jonah Winter: Hardcover; 48 pages / English

 In this eye-opening look at America's Founding Fathers, discover how Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and their diverse cohorts—tall, short, scientists, dancers, farmers, and soldiers—disagreed on almost everything except what mattered most: creating the finest constitution in world history. Full of fun facts and lively artwork, this 48-page hardcover explores the motley bunch of slave owners, abolitionists, philosophers, bankers, and angry letter-writers who shaped a nation. Some shouted "Yes!" to independence from Britain. Others shouted "No!" And some were too busy dancing in France to answer at all. Perfect for young readers curious about the real, complicated people behind American history.
