Who are the "we" of "we the people"? This collaboration between award-winning artist Duncan Tonatiuh and author Howard W. Reeves celebrates inclusion, exploring what the preamble to our United States constitution leaves unsaid.
Three starred reviews! We the People Is All the People is "a clearly rendered tribute to community care and unity that's anchored in hues of red, white, and blue." (Publishers Weekly)
We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union . . .
Who are the "we the people" mentioned in the preamble to the U.S. Constitution? They are our neighbors next door, down the street, or across the country. They live in different places, worship in different ways, come from different backgrounds and histories. They struggle, achieve, and overcome. They are you, and me, and us.
Because, as we strive to create a more perfect union, "we" should mean "all."
This beautiful picture book celebration of the best of America includes the preamble to the United States Constitution as well as notes from the author and artist.
Also look for the Spanish-language edition, Nosotros, el pueblo somos todos.
