What Is a Parliamentary Government? by Karen Latchana Kenney

Britain has a monarch and a prime minister. Who's in charge of the island? A parliamentary system of government is both similar and very different from democracy in the United States. Using historical text and primary sources, students discover how governments around the world balance a king or queen with a legislative branch. Readers learn how the parliament is elected, and how a bill becomes a law in the UK. They'll better understand world news after diving into the often-complex world of political systems. Accessible, in the news and relevant subject matter help build a fundamental understanding of this concept. Sidebars, photographs, and captions clarify ideas within the narrative. The conclusion summary chapter reinforces understanding about parliamentary governments.
Kenney, Karen Latchana: - Author and editor Karen Latchana Kenney has written many books for children and young adults. She's interested in all kinds of science subjects, from car science to the life cycle of spiders. Kenney lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with her husband and young son.
