About the Book:
Autumn Sky is an inquisitive six-year-old girl on a journey to the polling place with her parents for the first time. Along their quest, Autumn questions everything adults get to vote on in their community.
Get excited with Autumn as she daydreams about what it would be like if she was a public official and watch her excitement build for her opportunity to vote one day!
I Can't Wait To Vote is a great introduction to civic engagement, understanding representation, and how all of us have a say in our local, state, and national government.
