Signing Their Lives Away by Denise Kiernan

2.0

This book had a lot of interesting content, but it didn't seem like a lot of it would stick. I could feel myself forgetting these men even as I read about them. It was a decent read, but I'm a little stumped at assigning it to an age group. It was shelved in the Children's section at my local library. Really? Maybe Young Adult, but I'm not buying it as a children's book. Though perhaps some of the snarkiness and innuendo would go over the heads of younger readers. That might be a shame though, since that's what made the book fun to read. All in all, something amusing to have on the shelves to browse through or read a snippet here or there, all the while learning more about the Declaration of Independence.
