The theme based school where I work will start with the theme of "Who Counts?" and it covers politics and elections on different levels for the children who attend our K-8 school. I picked up Susan E. Goodman's book because I was familiar with her other books, and I knew my students would love it. I just finished the book myself, and I really learned a lot about past presidents and elections. Goodman covers the 2000 election in a language that is easy for kids to access but does not simplify the situation. I also like how she addresses the different periods of time in the history of the USA when people other then while males couldn't vote. I plan on buying multiple copies of this book so that each classroom at our school can have one.
