The document would certainly surprise those who expected the Convention to recommend amendments to the Articles of Confederation: The Convention instead proposed an entirely new government. #parallelreading #mommalove #booktalk My son recommended this book to me- reading simultaneously. Sharing snippets with my husband- Even mentioned our town's stand- anti ratifying this Constitution. #familybookshare #collegeexamprep #dormroomfaninwinter
