Midwest Book Review
February, 2006

I stand in total awe at the exceptional job author Cathy Travis has done in translating our Constitution into a uncomplicated way that anyone can read and understand. We open up this outstanding book to read some comments on Democracy by such great ones as John Adams, President George Washington and President Theodore Roosevelt.

Our author then speaks to adults giving a rundown of what to expect in this work and she gives a brief message to children as well. She takes us through the birth of a Democracy and the governing of our Constitution; at this time we begin our journey into one of the greatest documents ever written and it is one of great enlightenment.

Ms. Travis uses two columns in this book, on the left is the complete text of the United States Constitution and on the right is her easy to understand translation of the same.

As I read this I smiled at finally having a full understanding of the document that governs my life and gives me my liberties. Well done; Bravo!

I feel this book should be in every home in America; it is truly a God send for young and old alike. You will truly understand exactly what are the rights of, 'We the people." I give this work my highest recommendation. Exceptional and beyond excellent.
