From Booklist
The long-running Cornerstones of Freedom series takes topics and names with which young readers are familiar and puts them into context. The Supreme Court follows the high court’s evolution from inception through modern day. Famous cases are discussed; though, surprisingly, neither abortion nor controversial cases like Citizens United are mentioned. The series has a colorful, engaging design and uses plenty of photographs. A “Living History” section points out primary sources, and a map in each book pinpoints where important events happened. Grades 5-8. --Ilene Cooper
