That’s Not Fair! Getting to Know your Rights and Freedoms by Danielle McLaughlin - NO

McLaughlin, Danielle That’s Not Fair! Getting to Know your Rights and Freedoms Citizen Kid (Kids Can Press), 2016. $17.99 PICTURE BOOK
This book features a series of stories that serve to create a discussion about fundamental democratic rights such as No Unreasonable Searches, Freedom Press, and more. The stories are 2-3 large pages with illustrations and each short story ends at with discussion stop featuring questions.
These stories were stuffed with dialogue and plot, overwhelmingly so. The fighting amongst the councilors and characters was seriously irritating to read. The short stories seem long because of this, so I can’t imagine a teacher reading this to a class, it just annoying.
