This book is more than just a simple break down of the contents of the Bill of Rights (as I had somewhat expected). Certainly each section presents us with the text of each amendment. More importantly, we are given examples of how each amendment has been interpreted throughout history. We see how Supreme Court cases and their decisions have influenced our understanding of our rights as they currently stand. This is a somewhat dense read but will go a long way to helping young readers understand their rights.
