These titles in the Spotlight on Civic Action series cover important topics not often addressed in informational books about civics. Accompanied by photos of political figures, children and adults from diverse backgrounds, and historical documents and reproductions, the short chapters focus on specific issues related to the broader topic. Civic Engagement begins with the formation of the U.S. government and changes brought about by early civic engagement, such as securing women's voting rights, before presenting several forms of activism and ways of making a difference. Complimentary in content, the volumes conclude by asking readers to consider their role in these topics. Terrific building blocks for children to become educated, civics-minded citizens.
