32 pp. | Capstone | August, 2008 | Library ISBN 978-1-4296-1929-5 $23.93
(4) 4-6 Fact Finders: Kids' Translations series. Following a brief context-setting introduction, the complete texts of the title documents are reprinted, surrounded by a paraphrased version of each, photographs and maps, definitions, questions, and additional information. This is a well-conceived concept, though it's likely that some information will get lost on the crowded pages. The concluding chapters provide additional background. Reading list, timeline. Glos., ind. Review covers these Fact Finders: Kids' Translations titles: The Declaration of Independence in Translation and The Gettysburg Address in Translation.
