If I Ran the Country: An introduction to politics where YOU make the decisions by Rich Knight
karlamcclatchey's review
5.0
Review by Presley age 13
I really did enjoy this book, because it talks about politics but encorporates humour. There are lots of tips about how to run a country if you are in charge and advice about what sort of decisions you need to make as leader. It gives you an overview on the types of government you may choose from a democracy to anarchy through to a dictatorship. Cartoons and illustrations mark every page to make it more lively and fun. One of the things I liked best was the activities you are asked to do. I would really recommend this to anyone around 11 years plus with an interest in history and/ or politics or taking over a country or the world due to the content and vocabulary! It is educational, but in a really fun way. I guarantee your parents will learn from it too as there are lots of interesting facts and figures.
