Description
If you're under 18, you might be thinking, "Why do voting rights matter to me? I'm too young to vote." Voting is how our country chooses government leaders to make important decisions that affect all our lives. When one citizen is denied their right to vote, their voice is silenced. Everyone deserves a voice.
Throughout the history of the US, many Americans from underrepresented groups have fought, suffered, or died for the right to vote. Their hard work and courage has allowed many to gain the right to vote. But challenges remain and affect many voters.
This book will help you learn more about voting and understand why the right to vote is important. Even if you are not old enough to vote, you can make a difference. Get informed about our country's leaders. Make your voice heard. And spread the word about the importance of voting!

Featured Reviews
It seems shocking that it's taken so long for most people to get the right to vote in the US. One group at a time, different groups of people were recognized as citizens who should be allowed to vote. It's even more shocking that this is a right that people still have to protect.
Learning about voting is important, and this book has clear explanations of the historical context. Everyone should know the material in this short, well& written book.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this
