By and large, each page features one fact (e.g., "The US Constitution wasn't the first American constitution") with a few sentences that explain the information. The well-curated content is peppered with information that is of use to report writers and of interest to casual readers. For example, "There is a handprint on the Declaration of Independence" and "There's no recorded proof that Betsy Ross sewed the first US flag." Accessibility for readers is enhanced by concise, direct writing and large, high-impact fonts. Informative and entertaining.

The Stars and Stripes, with its iconic colors and patterns, has long been a symbol of freedom in the United States and all over the world. But the US flag we're familiar with today has only been around since 1959. Before that, the flag took on many different arrangements. Readers will learn about the many versions of the US flag that came before our current version. Colorful, patriotic photographs aid readers in understanding the text, as do informative graphic organizers.
