No?
STOP everything and go purchase it now!! I mean it! It doesn't matter if you have children or not....you need to read this book!
David Bowman, author and illustrator, glorifies his Savior and his nation through his fine art, his books, and his motivational speaking. His latest work is quickly becoming THE Constitutional/ conservative book for young Americans. In What Would the Founding Fathers Think? A YOUNG American's Guide to Understanding What Makes Our Nation Great & How we've Strayed, David uses wit, humor, and a variety of visuals to skillfully teach preteens and teens alike the wisdom of returning to our nation's founding principles, and in a way that they will actually "get it". Even adults will enjoy the simplicity of its explanations.
Have you ever thought what our founding fathers would think if they were here today?
This book educates the next generation with the history of our nation in a fun and entertaining way, and equips them with the knowledge to take the next steps.
I highly recommend it for both children and adults. It is easy enough for upper elementary children to understand, and even I learned a few things. David uses excellent stories and illustrations to make his points.
Thoughts of a 9-Year Old: I really liked What Would The Founding Father Think? and I loved reading it. It was fun to read and the examples were silly as can be. I like it because I actually got half of what they were trying to say. My motto for this book? "Everyone, including adults, should read this - especially the people running for President."
