Review
An introduction to government for young children describing the three branches of government: congress,the president and the cabinet, and the courts. A very brief explanation is given of what each does. A major flaw is that no where in the book does it explain that this is about the government of the United States of America, and that each country has it's own form of government. On the final page it states "The government runs well when the branches work together. A good message for all. Includes a table of contents, glossary and index.
