Many gifted children may be interested to look beyond HOW we celebrate the 4th of July with parades, fireworks, BBQs, picnics, and more, to ask WHY we celebrate and WHAT we celebrate.

Wikipedia provides a crowd-sourced entry, United States Declaration of Independence.

The Library of Congress (LOC) provides access to Thomas Jefferson's original draft of the Declaration of Independence.

Some may find the 1776 Report to be of interest.
It is a free, downloadable 45-page PDF.
