K-3First Guide to Government series.
This series attempts to explain the concept of America's national symbols. Beginning readers will appreciate the simple vocabulary, though the boilerplate language common to all books is vague and dull ("A symbol is a type of sign. A symbol shows you something"). Clear photographs and reproductions provide visual support. Glos., ind. Review covers these Patriotic Symbols titles: The Capitol Building, The Lincoln Memorial, Mount Rushmore, The National Anthem, and The Washington Monument.
