The thirteen states were squabbling, the country could not pay its bills, and in Massachusetts farmers had taken up arms against the government. Was our country, which had fought so hard for its independence, going to survive?\n\nIn May 1787 delegates from across the country—including George Washington, James Madison, and Benjamin Franklin—gathered in Philadelphia and, meeting over the course of a sweltering summer, created a new framework for governing: the Constitution of the United States. Their efforts turned a shaky alliance of states into a nation that would prosper and grow powerful, drawing its strength for centuries to come from “We the people” and inspiring hope for freedom around the world.\n\nThis richly illustrated tale of a crucial point in our nation’s history will enthrall readers young and old.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1442444223\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: PKV.1442444223.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Cheney, Lynne|Harlin, Greg\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: A well-loved companion.
