Book Nook: Who Makes the Rules? Types of Government

My younger daughter is very interested in government, so I was looking forward to reviewing the new book“Who Makes the Rules?: Types of Government,” by author and illustrator, Zephyr. 

The author draws parallels between various forms on government and animals in nature. It's a great way to simplify the types and forms of government in a way that even younger kids will be able to understand.

 

 

“The creation of my first book all started as a class assignment in my middle school Social Science class,” said Zephyr. “I wanted to make it easier for children to remember the different forms of the government system not only through text but also through illustrations. Most literature dealing with this topic are not made for children, ‘Who Makes the Rules?’ is specifically for that audience and is taught in a way that is easy to grasp.”

 

By the end of the book, readers will also learn about Absolute and Constitutional Monarchy, Republics, Theocracies, Aristocracies and more as Zephyr discovers how different communities define rules through the forms of governments that they follow. 

 

Available at the Archway Publishing Online Bookstore, Amazon and Barnes & Noble
