The Declaration of Independence - Explained: An Illustrated Book About the Origin of Our Nation (The American History - Explained Series) - Softcover
Synopsis
In The Declaration of Independence - Explained, middle-school readers are invited into the summer of 1776, when the air buzzed with both fear and hope. As British troops tightened their grip on the colonies, courageous delegates in Philadelphia gathered to debate a daring idea-that the thirteen colonies should no longer be ruled by a king, but stand as a free and independent nation. This book brings that moment to life, showing how ordinary men risked everything to lay the foundation for a new country.
Through clear explanations, engaging storytelling, and vivid illustrations, students will see the Declaration not as a dusty parchment, but as a bold statement of freedom that continues to shape America today. The book breaks down Jefferson's powerful words about life, liberty, and equality in a way young readers can understand, while also highlighting the people, places, and events that surrounded its creation. Fun facts, side notes, and visual guides help answer the questions students are most curious about.
Part of the American History - Explained series from Crane Books, this second volume follows the success of The Star-Spangled Banner - Explained. Together, these books make history approachable, exciting, and inspiring for middle-schoolers and their families. More than just dates and names, they capture the spirit of a nation in the making and invite young readers to discover the courage and vision that still define America today.
