I like that this was down in a limited palette as it allowed me to focus on the concept it was teaching: government. This book puts into perspective a topic such as government which can be viewed as boring and confusing and breaks into examples and drawings that simplify topics we do not encounter in our everyday lives. This is a selection that I would suggest to those who are history and government teachers as I feel it would be an attractive read and enhance their understanding.
