Qué es la constitución? / by Demuth, Patricia,author.(CARDINAL)719898; Foley, Tim,1962-illustrator.(CARDINAL)362533; Canetti, Yanitzia,1967-translator.(CARDINAL)391037;
Includes bibliographical references.Qué es la Constitución? -- Un gobierno cojo -- Quiénes vienen a Filadelfia? -- Virginia tiene un plan -- Los pequeños contra los grandes -- Una batalla entre el Norte y el Sur -- Decisiones, decisiones -- "Nosotros, el pueblo" -- La Carta de Derechos -- La Constitución sigue viva."Signed on September 17, 1787--four years after the American War for Independence--the Constitution laid out the supreme law of the United States of America. Today it's easy for us to take this blueprint of our government for granted. But the Framers--fifty-five men from almost all of the original 13 states--argued fiercely for many months over what ended up being only a four-page document. Here is a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the hotly fought issues--those between Northern and Southern States; big states and little ones--and the key players such as James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and George Washington who suffered through countless revisions to make the Constitution happen"--Ages 8-12
