N2  - All elementary school students learn about the history of the U.S. Constitution when they begin social studies. This book tells them about the great American document itself--explaining exactly what the Constitution does as well as how it affects and protects people today; "Do you know how the U.S. Constitution works to protect you, your friends, and your family? It gives you and every American citizen many rights including the right to vote, as well as to enjoy freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom to worship -- or not worship -- according to your beliefs, to disagree openly with government policy. You'll learn about our rights as a citizen...and also learn which rights are reserved for the state and the community where you live. New to this edition is the addition of new, more complex words that will raise the reading level and an updated emphasis on the distinction between federal and state judges and courts."--Amazon.com
