This book would be appropriate for a read aloud with Primary aged students.
This book is about what it means to be a citizen and the ways in which a citizen can help in their community.
I would use this book in the classroom to show my students what it means to be a good citizen and the importance of being a good citizen in society. This book describes the little ways that we can be good citizens.

This is a very informative way of how to interduce young students into politics. Giving them a better understanding of good choices/thoughts that will in the future benefit them and the people around them.

Focused on the idea of citzenship and what it means to you. It's following kids who present political topics in fun childish ways. I could use this book as a intro to my classroom, telling my students they have equal part in my classroom.

Across the course of several seemingly unrelated but ultimately connected actions by different children, we watch how kids turn a lonely island into a community and watch a journey from what the world should be to what the world could be.
