Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 4–6—These texts are clear and concise and contain anecdotes and facts that will appeal to kids. Chapter spreads cover such topics as atomic spies and trained dogs in FBI and landmark cases and famous justices in Supreme Court. Unfortunately, while the irreverent color cartoons that accompany each paragraph may hook reluctant readers, the illustrations don't clarify or extend the text and the overall layout is crowded.—Mari Pongkhamsing, St. Perpetua School, Lafayette, CA
