4.0 out of 5 stars America's Promise

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst children's book ever.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst children's book ever., November 15, 2010
This review is from: America's Promise (Hardcover)
We were given this book as a gift and looked forward to reading it the first time. We were terribly disappointed.

The book has mediocre illustrations and a poor plot line that attempts to cover several different lessons and themes all at once. It doesn't cover any of them well. Add to that poor grammar - "He was a real big man. And a real smart man." - and things that just don't make any sense - "The human body can only do so much" spoken by a bison to a group of other animals, not a human in the bunch - and the book becomes a complete loss.

Do not buy this book. I only gave it one star because I couldn't write a review with no stars.
