<br/><br/> When it comes to the American government, checks and balances are the key to success.   That's because the Founding Fathers distributed the government's powers among three disticnct branches: executive, judicial and legislative.  In The Three Branches of Govenment, kids will understand why this "separation of powers" is unique, while exploring each of the three branches in detail.  It's quite a balancing act - but one that keeps the American government in check!
