U.S. Government by Julia Garstecki

It's never too early to introduce future leaders to how the government works.

The Legislative Branch is made of the Senate and the House of Representatives. They make the laws...

The Judicial Branch decides how the laws should be enforced...

The Executive Branch enforces the law...

Americans vote for people they think will make America better.

Equip little learners with an early understanding of the U.S. government in this dazzlingly colorful board-book primer. Take a look inside the government's Legislative Branch, Judicial Branch, and Executive Branch in Washington, D.C. Who works in each branch? What is each branch's role?

And don't forget the most important part of government: the voter!

This little book is perfect for inquisitive, wide-eyed little ones who are sure to become future change-makers. Unique illustrations by Hilli Kushnir help to explain complex topics to young ones.
