Steal this Country by Alexandra Styron- ADVISABLE

Language: PG (6 swears, 0 “f”); Mature Content: PG; Violence: PG

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

Styron introduces six current political issues, focusing on those important to America though a few international issues are included. She explains each of those issues and couples them with personal experiences from young activists to show readers why their voice is important in this country. 

While Styron has an obviously liberal political view, I love how she encourages young people to find an issue that they feel strongly about and take action—no matter what the issue is or they feel about it.
