Editorial Reviews:

Four-time #1 bestselling author and veteran television news journalist Bill O'Reilly has more than 5 million copies of his books in print to date! His first book for young fans, The O'Reilly Factor for Kids, held the honorable distinction of being the #1 bestselling nonfiction title for kids in 2005 according to Nielsen's The Book Standard.

Back again with a dialogue on rights that will have everyone talking, O'Reilly and his coauthor Charles Flowers dole out the kind of blunt, cogent, commonsense commentary you count on them for. Together they explore timely questions being debated in and out of courts today, including:
  • Can a kid wear an anti-gay T-shirt on campus?
  • Does a school newspaper have the right to bad-mouth a principal?
  • Does a mother have the right to eavesdrop on her daughter's telephone conversations?

Some of the answers will surprise you. Some will empower you. All will make you think.

Summary: Good Read
Comment:
Interesting, even inspiring, fun, funny, thoughtful. O'Reilly's experiences and view of the culture and changes in same during his lifetime (and mine) are insightful and encouraging.

Summary: Good for young kids
Comment: This book provides a fairly simple and clear explaination of the constitution with examples of how it should work. It describes the history and the thinking behind the creation of the constitution and how it is applied to real life events. The real life cases are from situations that have occurred in schools which children can relate to. I believe this should be read by all kids around 7th grade and up.

Customer Rating: Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5
Summary: Raises more questiosn than answers
Comment: Why is it, if my kid truly is an American, that I can submit them to capital punishment (in the form of spankings) without due process? And why are they not allowed to vote? And, if they're really Americans, then why can't they serve in the military and defend their country if they REALLY believe in it so much. Frankely, when this book claims to "empower" children, I think what they omited was "...to be lazy and not exercise the civic duties that come with being a REAL American."

Summary: Good Kid Primer
Comment: Great book for Kids on being a Citizen. Non-political and great examples of where rights of each individual overlap. I bought 10 copies for the Boy Scouts to read while earning their Citizenship Merit Badges.
