The Bill of Rights

Carefully leveled text coupled with primary-source images will encourage young readers to take a closer look at the U.S. Constitution’s first ten Amendments, known as the Bill of Rights. Citizens of the newly independent United States proposed several freedoms, including speech, assembly, and worship–many of which are still recognized and honored today. Curriculum-based content and fact-filled sidebars help define these rights, while allowing readers to draw connections between the Bill of Rights and their daily lives.
