What's the Issue?: Sets 1 – 7
Although children are frequently aware of what's happening around them, they don't always get all the information they need to form a clear picture of the situation that leaves them feeling empowered rather than afraid or unsure. Understanding issues such as hacking, impeachment, and trade wars is crucial to creating an informed opinion about current events. Engaging text, enhanced with full-color photographs and accessible graphic organizers, gives readers information about all facets of today's most important issues. Knowing the facts is the first step toward becoming active, informed citizens and making a difference in the world. • Up-to-date statistics presented in eye-catching fact boxes that provide fact-based evidence to encourage readers to support their opinions with relevant data
Key features of each volume:
• Suggestions for age-appropriate ways for young people to participate in their community that make it easy to get involved with issues they care about
• Historical or scientific context on each topic that helps readers see how the things they learn about in school affect people's lives today
